Dragon Age: The Veilguard Fails To Reach Top 30 Most Wishlisted Games on Steam

Expert Verified By

Just A Month Left Before Release!

Story Highlight
  • Dragon Age: Veilguard had a lot of anticipation and hype before it was revealed to the world. 
  • However, the hype died down as it failed to even reach the top 30 most wishlisted games on Steam a month before its release.
  • The game isn’t even in the top 100 best-selling titles on Steam, which indicates poor pre-orders. 

Dragon Age: The Veilguard became pretty famous on the reveal, and fans loved it. The developers even favored fans who decided to skip battle passes and microtransactions. So, the hype was pretty prominent, but it soon died out.

The reason for that is fans started to think that the game was going ‘woke.’ Due to some recent reveals, the fandom seems to be even more concerned, which is why some reports are highlighting that its pre-orders are poor.

Also, just a month before release, it failed to even reach the top 30 most wishlisted games on Steam, which is concerning. 

Why it matters: Recently, Dragon Age: The Veilguard has been attracting a lot of controversy, and that is likely to hurt its sales despite the high anticipation.

As you can see in the image above, it isn’t even in the top 30 list. Many other games with way less marketing are above on the list, which shows that the fandom isn’t really excited about this title anymore. Games that don’t even have a release date are even higher than this title.

For reference, Deadlock and Hollow Knight: Silksong are in second and third place, respectively, while Monster Hunter Wilds takes first place due to its massive fandom. The Veilguard still looks promising, as the recent previews have been really positive.

One of the previews even called it a GOTY contender despite all the criticism it has been facing. The other previews also highlight positive aspects of the game. However, despite that, it fails to reach the top 100 best-selling video games on Steam. 

Dragon Age: The Veilguard
Despite So Much Criticism, The Veilguard Has Shown Promise

It is currently ranked a disappointing 118th among Steam best-sellers, just a month before its release. EA recently revealed that the demand for the game is pretty high, but these statistics say otherwise. 

That said, there is still a month left before Dragon Age: The Veilguard is released, so hopefully, it will be ranked better than it is right now. The game is set to release on 31st October
