Dragon Age: The Veilguard had a turbulent development cycle, taking nearly a decade to release. Despite a strong critical reception, its launch failed to meet Electronic Arts’ expectations. With 1.5 million players engaging with the game in its first two months, EA leadership acknowledged that it did not break beyond its core audience. The company’s recent earnings call highlighted its need to adapt to evolving player demands, and BioWare now faces a period of restructuring.
