While it’s normal — and even expected — single-player games to have DLC post-launch these days, that won’t be the case for the latest Dragon Age game by BioWare, Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

This was confirmed by Dragon Age: The Veilguard Creative Director John Epler in an interview with Rolling Stone. According to Epler, there are no The Veilguard DLC planned, as BioWare has now shifted focus to the next Mass Effect game, which, while we know has been under development since last year when it was teased as part of the N7 Day celebrations. Epler wouldn’t share more info about the in-development sci-fi RPG, which is understandable.

Of course, it’s hard to talk about Mass Effect without mentioning the last mainline entry, Mass Effect: Andromeda. Released in 2017 on the PS4, Xbox One and PC, Andromeda was supposed to usher in a new era for the franchise, as the first trilogy was centered around Commander Shepard’s adventures. Unfortunately, Andromeda bombed hard both critically and commercially, and abruptly ended any future plans for the series.

Will the Next Mass Effect Game Feature Multiplayer?
While BioWare introduced a horde mode-like multiplayer in Mass Effect 3, it’s not known whether the studio plans to bring that back, or integrate t as part of the campaign. Epler wouldn’t say exactly where they’re leaning on this, but did comment on the studio tackling multiplayer once again.

According to Epler, “It’s possible to tell a strong story in a multiplayer game. Final Fantasy XIV does an excellent job,” and adds, “Multiplayer also introduces some complications around world states. I make a giant choice in my world, and the world changes.”

Hopefully, we’ll hear more about the next Mass Effect game in the coming year. That said, given how long BioWare crafts their RPGs, don’t expect it to be released anytime soon.

That long development time seems to be worth it though, as Dragon Age: The Veilguard has established a new record for publisher Electronic Arts on Steam, making it the most played single-player game on the platform of all-time.
