Dragon Age Veilguard Director Leaves EA After Disappointing Attempt At Series Revival

Expert Verified By

Rumors Also Suggest BioWare Edmonton Shutting Down!

Story Highlight
  • Corinne Busche is moving on from EA and BioWare after nearly two decades.
  • A leaked email reveals that the director behind Dragon Age: The Veilguard will continue making RPGs.
  • This departure could lead to a huge shift for the next Mass Effect title.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard has gone down as one of last year’s biggest disappointments. Despite anticipation and excitement over BioWare’s gaming comeback, the RPG failed to make a splash and failed to live up to the modern standards set by the likes of Cyberpunk 2077 and Baldur’s Gate 3.

In the aftermath, it seems the director is set to depart from BioWare, highlighting once again how disappointing this RPG was for EA and BioWare.

Why it matters: The director had been a part of BioWare for nearly two decades, so this departure is nothing short of a huge deal.

The information comes via a leaked email from Corinne Busche, the director behind BioWare’s latest RPG. As per the email, the developer is moving on to a different project and will continue to focus on making RPGs.

While this departure has yet to be officially announced, reliable insider Jeff Grubb has also corroborated the news. In his latest tweet, the insider confirmed Corinne Busche is set to leave BioWare.

Moreover, he addressed reports about BioWare Edmonton potentially being shut down. Grubb states that this rumor may not be true, but the story is still developing, with more details coming up with each passing hour.

As said earlier, Dragon Age: The Veilguard was far from a critical or commercial hit. Corinne Busche also addressed the game’s underwhelming performance, citing an online hate campaign against the title.

Ultimately, this departure could fundamentally change BioWare as the team prepares to speed up development on the next Mass Effect. Whether this will be a good thing, however, is anybody’s guess for now.
