Dragon Age: The Veilguard Will Not Have Any DLC!

Story Highlight
  • The last Mass Effect game was released over seven years ago. 
  • BioWare had its hands full with Dragon Age: The Veilguard, but now it has diverted all of its attention to Mass Effect 5. 
  • Due to that, there will not be a DLC or any expansions for the latest Dragon Age game. 

BioWare recently released Dragon Age: The Veilguard, a game that fans have been waiting for a long time. While the game wasn’t what many franchise fans were hoping it would be, the launch was pretty solid. 

So far, the developer has no plans to release a DLC for the game, as it has focused all of its attention on Mass Effect 5. 

Why it matters: It has been over seven years since another instalment in the Mass Effect franchise was released, so fans have been waiting for a long time.

Mass Effect 4 Wasn’t Well Received By The Fandom And Critics on Launch

John Epler, the Creative Director of Dragon Age: The Veilguard, revealed in a recent interview with The Rolling Stone that the studios’ focus has now entirely been shifted to Mass Effect 5.  

there are currently no plans for downloadable expansions. The developers’ full attention has now shifted entirely to the next Mass Effect as their current project.

Fans who have been enjoying The Veilguard might be devastated to know that there isn’t any DLC planned, but the game’s launch wasn’t that good compared to other successful RPGs. So, BioWare might never release any additional content for this game

Regardless of that, Mass Effect fans would be delighted to hear that the studio is focusing more on this franchise. However, BioWare didn’t reveal much information about the project. 

The previous Mass Effect game received a mixed reception from fans and critics, so BioWare can redeem itself, but after The Veilguard, fans aren’t that optimistic regarding Mass Effect 5.
