BioWare has no plans for Dragon Age: The Veilguard expansions

BioWare has no plans to release story expansions for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, the studio has confirmed. The developer is now shifting its focus completely to the next Mass Effect title. Dragon Age: The Veilguard launched on October 31 for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series S/X. The action RPG has had an impressive release, becoming BioWare’s most popular game on Steam ever.

No DLC plans for Dragon Age: The Veilguard

Dragon Age: The Veilguard creative director John Epler shared Rolling store that the studio skipped downloadable expansions for the RPG. BioWare has reportedly turned its “full attention” to its current project, the next Mass Effect title. However, Epler did not reveal any details about the studio’s next game.

The creative director also discussed the possibility of remastering the first three Dragon Age games for modern platforms, much like Mass Effect Legendary Edition, which bundles an enhanced version of the original Mass Effect trilogy into one package. While he would like to see the Dragon Age games remastered, Epler said it would be a challenging task.

“I think I’m one of about 20 people left at BioWare who has actually used Eclipse,” Epler told the publication. “It’s something that won’t be as easy as Mass Effect, but we do love the original games. Never say never, that’s what it comes down to, I guess.”

The first two Dragon Age games used a custom Eclipse engine, while the Mass Effect trilogy was built on the widely used Unreal Engine, making the remastering process for Legendary Edition relatively smoother.

The next chapter in the Mass Effect franchise, which does not yet have an official name, was revealed with a teaser trailer at The Game Awards 2020. BioWare has not revealed any details about the game.

However, last week, BioWare executive producer Michael Gamble, who is leading the team working on the next Mass Effect game, said that the next game in the sci-fi RPG franchise would maintain the mature tone of the original trilogy and would contain a photorealistic visual representation. style.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard was released on PC, Xbox Series S/X, and PS5 and quickly rose to the top of Steam’s best-seller list. The game also became BioWare’s largest Steam launch in history, attracting over 70,000 concurrent players on the platform within a day of launch.
