BioWare hyped up Dragon Age: Veilguard as the next big hit, but let’s be real—it’s flopped, hard. With peak concurrent players barely scratching 89,000 on launch weekend, it’s a shadow of what you'd expect for a AAA title. And now, BioWare has confirmed no expansions or DLC are in the works. That’s right—no follow-up content, no post-launch support, nada. Looks like they’re ready to sweep this one under the rug and focus on Mass Effect 5 instead.

What went wrong? Many fans are blaming the preachy, “woke” storytelling and DEI messaging that seem to overshadow the gameplay itself. From cutscenes lecturing on misgendering to dialogue that feels forced and heavy-handed, the game is packed with themes that have left players rolling their eyes. Even big names in the gaming industry are weighing in, with former World of Warcraft dev Mark Kern pointing out that players just aren’t sticking around. The message is clear: fans wanted an immersive RPG, not a soapbox.

This complete lack of post-launch plans for Dragon Age is practically BioWare admitting they’ve thrown in the towel on Veilguard. For a franchise that once delivered game-of-the-year experiences, this is a huge disappointment. Ten years of waiting for a game that’s already being deserted by its player base? Veilguard was supposed to bring fans back to Dragon Age, but it’s driving them away faster than ever.
