Dragon Age: The Veilguard Won’t Get DLC
BioWare recently revealed that Dragon Age: The Veilguard won’t have any planned DLC.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard DLC Won’t be Happening
Dragon Age: The Veilguard was released on October 31 after around nine years of development. The previous game in the franchise, Dragon Age: Inquisition, was launched in 2014, and it had three DLCs: Jaws of Hakkon, The Descent, and Trespassper.
BioWare’s creative director John Epler recently revealed to Rolling Stone that there are no plans to develop DLC for Dragon Age: The Veilguard. As soon as the new Dragon Age is fully patched, the studio’s entire focus will shift to the development of the upcoming Mass Effect game. While this is disappointing news for fans who were excited to see more content in the Dragon Age universe, at least it means that The Veilguard will not suffer from the same issues as Inquisition did. Back in 2015, Dragon Age: Inquisition was greatly criticized for having the “true” ending of its story set in the “Trespasser” DLC.
During the same interview, Epler also addressed the possibility of releasing a Dragon Age collection. According to the creative director, it’s not as easy to remaster all Dragon Age games as it was with Mass Effect. The entire Mass Effect trilogy was made with Unreal Engine, while Dragon Age: Origins used the Eclipse engine, and Dragon Age 2 using the Frostbite engine. While Epler expressed interest in the classic games, it does not seem probable that a collection will ever come out.
Aside from Dragon Age: The Veilguard won’t getting DLC, the game received positive reviews from players.
