Dragon Age: The Veilguard: All Story, Companion, and Side Quests

Looking for a list of all quests in Dragon Age: The Veilguard? In this Dragon Age: The Veilguard guide, we've compiled every quest in the game, ranging from main story quests and important companion quests through to side quests.

All Quests in Dragon Age: The Veilguard

Below is a list of quests in Dragon Age: The Veilguard, categorised by the kind of quests that they are.

Story Quests

These are all of the Story Quests in Dragon Age: The Veilguard. Progressing through these quests pushes the main plot forward, although there are times when you'll be given more than one Story Quest at once. When that happens, you'll need to complete all of the available Story Quests to advance.

It's also worth noting that progressing through certain Story Quests can lock you out of specific Companion Quests and Side Quests. As such, you should always make sure that you haven't missed any exclamation marks at the Lighthouse before progressing the plot.

In chronological order, these are the game's Story Quests:

• The End of the Beginning
• In Entropy's Grasp

Additional Story Quests

There are three additional Story Quests scattered throughout the Crossroads. Your journal marks these down specifically as 'Story' Quests, but you don't necessarily have to complete them in order to progress the plot.

However, it is recommended that you track them down and complete them, as they give additional context to the overall story. You can start them by walking through the various white barriers that you'll find in the Crossroads.

These are the additional Story Quests:

• The Wolf's Call (Started by entering one of Solas' memories in the Crossroads
• Disrupt and Conquer (Started by entering one of Solas' memories in the Heights of Athim region of the Crossroads)
• The Labs Below (Started by entering one of Solas' memories in the Converged City region of the Crossroads, but you'll need to open the gate with a Champion's essence a little later in the game)

Companion Quests

Companion Quests are personal quests given to you by your party members. You can pick them up from the Lighthouse, whenever a companion has an exclamation mark over their heads. You can also check for exclamation marks on the map.

Completing Companion Quests has a significant impact on how later events in the game play out. Completing at least one or two of them (per character) is also necessary if you want to romance someone. You can check our Dragon Age: The Veilguard: All Romance Options guide for more info on that.
