How to open 'currently inaccessible' doors in Dragon Age The Veilguard

There's good news and there's bad news (depending on how you view it), to open most doors labelled as 'currently inaccessible' in Dragon Age: The Veilguard you simply need to progress more in the story. There will be multiple doors of this type that are blocked due to your current story quest or side quest progression - meaning you just need to keep playing to unlock them.

However, there are a couple of exceptions. There are a few 'currently inaccessible' doors in the Crossroads that are blocked until you defeat the boss (also known as a Champion) that's connected to them. You'll get a Champion's essence after defeating them, and you then need to return that essence to and use it on the door. This is what unlocks it and completes that door's quest.

These are often high-level and hard-to-beat bosses, which means it's likely you won't unlock these doors until later in your playthrough as well.
