Dragon Age: The Veilguard Seemingly Sold Even Worse Than Star Wars Outlaws

Expert Verified By

A Massive Flop Despite Positive Reception From Critics?

Story Highlight
  • Rumors claim that Dragon Age: The Veilguard has allegedly sold even worse than Star Wars Outlaws.
  • The RPG has rolled over only 500k units, which is a disappointing figure and far from breaking even for the studio.
  • On the flip side, Star Wars Outlaws has been rumored to have sold around a million copies in its first month.

Fans had high expectations for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, as it had been in the making for nearly a decade. However, it flopped quite hard after the launch. The RPG’s poorly written characters and forced DEI seeping into every depth of the story had already forecasted those results. 

However, no one expected it to perform as badly as new rumors suggest. The game has allegedly sold even fewer copies than another massive flop of this year, Star Wars Outlaws.  

Why it matters: Dragon Age: The Veilguard, despite having a positive reception from critics, could prove to be an even bigger flop than we expected.

The popular YouTuber ENDYMIONtv clarifies Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s allegedly terrible sales in a new video. His source revealed that the RPG seems to have sold around the 500k figure, half of what Star Wars Outlaws managed to roll over. It is nothing to boast about for an AAA title that took years to develop. Just to break even and earn any profits, the studio needs to sell about 4 to 5 million copies. 

What I’m told is that Veilguard may have sold overall so far anyway in the 500,000 range.

Additionally, the players have also allegedly been refunding the entry in droves. Such a result is not all that surprising, as rumors in the past also suggested that its pre-order sales were behind Star Wars Outlaws.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard launched to a highly disappointing user reception.

However, it is worth noting that these rumors might prove to be a nothing burger in the future, as BioWare has yet to announce the official sales figure for the game. So, do take it with a huge pinch of salt.

What do you think about the rumors claiming that BioWare’s major RPG sold less than Star Wars Outlaws? Let us know your opinions in the comments, or join the discussion on the official Tech4Gamers forum.
