BioWare Launches Internal Investigation To Hunt Dragon Age: The Veilguard Sales Leaker

Expert Verified By

Studio Claims The Game Actually Sold 1 Million Copies!

Story Highlight
  • BioWare has launched an internal investigation to find Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s sales data leaker.
  • The studio says the RPG has sold now up to a million copies, which is 500k more than the initial claimed amount.
  • The one million sales figure is still not close to recouping the costs spent in developing the game. 

Dragon Age: The Veilguard has been in murky waters way before it came close to release. From poor pre-order sales to a highly negative reception due to ‘super wokeness,’ the RPG has been criticized a lot in the industry. The title only sold a measly 500k copies during its launch week.

As per new rumors, the studio is allegedly internally investigating the source of the original sales leak, while simultaneously letting the developers know that Dragon Age: The Veilguard has now sold up to a million copies.

Why it matters: In response to rumors, BioWare has claimed that Dragon Age: The Veilguard has sold up to a million copies till now. However, it is nowhere near enough to recoup the costs spent in developing the RPG.

In a new video, YouTuber Smash JT claims that BioWare launched an investigation to discover who leaked Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s original 500k sales figure—with over 30,000 refunds issued. It was dubbed to be even worse than Star Wars Outlaws, so the studio is taking the matter quite seriously. 

They’re more concerned with silencing any ‘whistleblowers’ than addressing any actual issues within the company. […] the toxic positivity has taken over the workplace.

On the flip side, the reported one million sales are still deemed to be pretty poor, considering the huge scope and budget of the RPG.

Recent stats from a popular poll revealed that over 90% of players are not happy with Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

All in all, BioWare has yet to comment on the investigation. Smash JT expects that the company will announce the official sales figures soon. So, do take these rumors with a grain of salt.

Do you think Dragon Age: The Veilguard has sold as much as BioWare claims, or were the initial rumors more probable? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below, or join the discussion on the official Tech4Gamers forum.
