The entire Dragon Age franchise, along with its varied DLCs, is available on Steam right now at a sale price of only $10 for the entire series ahead of the launch of Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
The latest entry in the highly popular franchise is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated RPGs of the year. For people who are new to the series, getting into the original games has never been easier, or cheaper.

Steam recently launched a Dragon Age franchise sale, offering a 90% discount on the games Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age II, and Dragon Age: Inquisition. Each title can be bought separately with the corresponding discount, with the first coming at $2.99, the second at $2.99, and the third at $3.99.
The massive sale comes ahead of the launch of BioWare's release of Dragon Age: The Veilguard which will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. The game will be launching sometime this fall, according to GameInformer.
For the most part, it is highly recommended for those who are planning to get Dragon Age: The Veilguard to play Dragon Age: Inquisition. This is because the third game in the franchise ties directly into the new game's story and lore.
However, many believe that the latest entry in the series will likely feature appearances, cameos, and storylines that tie from Dragon Age: Origins and Dragon Age II. This means that if you want to know everything, it's best to get the latest Steam sale and play all three original games.

What makes the latest discount on Steam for the Dragon Age series is that it includes the base games alongside all of their DLCs. This means that for Dragon Age: Origins, you will also get the Awakening expansion and several content packs.
On the other hand, Dragon Age II will come with all three of its own expansions and all of its DLC weapons and armor. Lastly, Dragon Age: Inquisition, if bought, will include the Jaws of Hakkon, Descent, and Trespasser DLCs and other items, said PCGamer.
Preparing for Dragon Age: The Veilguard
The original Dragon Age was considered to be a mid-2000s attempt to modernize the classic Infinity Engine formula. This was done in a way so that the Xbox generation of gamers could handle and appreciate it.
A word of caution for people who have not yet played any of the Dragon Age games is to be wary that they may feel unwieldy for some people. While the other titles were released to critical acclaim, the rest did not fare as well.
One of the major issues that players have that seemed to have held the games back in the past is that they lacked a cohesive vision that underpins the entire series. One example of this is in Dragon Age: Origins, which is a hardcore CRPG that should not be played on a console.
On the other hand, the sequel, Dragon Age II, was a much more intimate and downsized action RPG that featured light CRPG elements, according to Kotaku.
