If you’re wondering whether or not BioWare’s upcoming fantasy role-playing will expand past launch, the answer is currently unclear.
My colleague Rebecca Spearrecently played seven hours of Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and she’s been excited about everything she experienced. During the preview event, she asked game director Corinne Busche about whether or notDragon Age: The Veilguardwill be getting any DLC or expansions after it launches.
Busche replied, “Our focus right now is to make the best single-player RPG that’s out there, so we’re very focused on just making this featured content as complete as we can.”

DLC and expansions are a staple of theDragon Agefranchise, with Dragon Age: Origins receiving numerous smaller packs and a full-fledged expansion called Dragon Age: Origins Awakening.
While they didn’t get full expansions, Dragon Age 2 and Dragon Age: Inquisition also received multiple DLC packs, which expanded the stories of the games with new questlines, including some pretty major story reveals.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard is slated to launch on Halloween, Oct. 31, 2024. It’s available across Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, and PlayStation 5. If you’re not sure which edition to grab, consult ourDragon Age: The Veilguard preorder guide.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard
This fantasy RPG allows players to “be who they want to be” by choosing their race, class, and appearance. You also get to make decisions that impact the story. We don’t know if there will be DLC or expansions later on, but given the series' history, it’s certainly possible.
