In traditional Dragon Age fashion, Veilguard offers players many choices throughout the story, both in gameplay as well as during dialogue. Some of these decisions might be minor and have very little effect on your playthrough, but others can have a significant impact that can lead to a totally different ending. Dragon Age: The Veilguard has its fair share of endings, and as expected, some of them are good and some of them are bad, but there is also one that many players are unlikely to see unless they complete certain tasks throughout the game. In this article, we are going to give you a step-by-step guide on how you can unlock the secret ending of Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard - How to Unlock the Secret Ending

There are a few steps you need to follow to unlock the secret ending in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. The first step is completing the "Regrets of the Dread Wolf" side quest, which you can begin once you find your first statuette in the Crossroads. This will take you on a somewhat long journey to find all six statuettes, which will allow you to unlock and view Solas' memories. This quest will only become available once you complete "The Wolf's Call" side quest as well. All of this will lead you to acquiring the Essence of Mythal, which is an important item for a few different endings in the game.

The second thing you need to do is find the three Mysterious Circles, which are hidden across the world. Each of these circles is either locked behind a quest, challenge, or boss fight, and you are going to need to have a pretty strong character to reach them. Here are the locations of the three Mysterious Circles:

  • Mysterious Circle 1 - The first circle can be found on the small island in the Arlathan Forest, which you can find to the northeast of your starting camp. Around this island, you will find three energy beams that can be interacted with. Aim these beams towards the pillars on the island, and you will create a bridge that will allow you to access it. This will also spawn a guardian enemy, which you will need to defeat, and once you do so, you will be rewarded with a chest. Behind this chest, you will find the first Mysterious Circle.

  • Mysterious Circle 2 - The second circle can be found in a small room in the Necropolis Halls after defeating the Formless One dragon. You can only access this area after completing the "Restless Spirits" and "Pinnacle of Its Kind" quests, the latter of which will task you with defeating the dragon.

  • Mysterious Circle 3 - The final circle can be found after completing the "Heart of the Corruption" quest, which tasks you with defeating three champions around the world, culminating in a fight against the Revenant Dragon. This dragon can be found in the Crossroads, but you will only be able to access it after completing the previous steps in the quest, which involve defeating the champions.

After you have completed both of these steps, which include finishing the "Regrets of the Dread Wolf" quest and finding the three Mysterious Circles, you will be able to see the secret ending once you complete the game. This will also unlock "The Storm Quelled" trophy, which you will need if you want to Platinum the game. We will not go over any details of the ending itself so you can experience it for yourself.

That is everything you need to know about how to unlock the secret ending in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. By following these steps, you will be able to earn an extra trophy while also getting some extra content that might hint at where things are going to go for the franchise in the future.
