EA shares fell after reporting that Dragon Age: The Veilguard did not achieve expected sales

Although Dragon Age: The Veilguard was able to score decent reviews when it was released last year, it doesn't seem to have affected sales, so much so that publisher Electronic Arts' stock fell because of it.

As of Wednesday's after-market trading, EA shares fell 9% due to poor performance of EA Sports FC 25 and Dragon Age: The Veilguard. In EA's Q3 FY 2025 preliminary results report, Wilson said:

In addition to this, Wilson mentioned how The Veilguard was able to attract approximately 1.5 million players, which was 50% below the publisher's expectations.< /p>

EA will announce results for the third fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2024, on February 4. We should know more details by then.

Given the RPG hasn't lived up to expectations commercially, it's not surprising that BioWare has no plans to develop DLC for it. The studio has confirmed that it has shifted its focus to the next Mass Effect game, which we hope will be better.
