Dragon Age: The Veilguard has achieved significant success, but troubling news about BioWare has emerged.
Speculation about the closure of BioWare Edmonton and the exit of Dragon Age: The Veilguard's game director has been spreading online, fueled by certain "agenda-driven" sources.
According to Eurogamer, the departure of Corinne Boucher, the game’s director, is confirmed, with her exit from BioWare expected in the coming weeks. Boucher, an 18-year veteran at EA, primarily worked on The Sims franchise.
However, Eurogamer reports no concrete evidence of plans to shut down the Dragon Age: The Veilguard development team, with such claims remaining speculative.
Critics are divided on The Veilguard. Some hail it as a triumphant return for BioWare, calling it a masterpiece, while others view it as a solid role-playing game with notable flaws but lacking true innovation.
At the time of writing, The Veilguard had no negative Metacritic reviews. Most critics praised its engaging and dynamic action RPG gameplay, particularly at higher difficulty levels.
Yet, opinions vary. VGC, for example, noted that The Veilguard’s gameplay feels dated, offering little in terms of fresh or groundbreaking mechanics.
