Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s Patch 5 Is Out Now, And It Seems Like It’s The Last Major Update For The Game, As Bioware Moves On To Other Projects
Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s latest big update, Patch 5, is now out and available for players on PS5 and other platforms to download. It also seems like it’s the final major update the game will be getting, and that Bioware has officially moved on from the game to its next project.
Spotted by Eurogamer, at the top of the patch notes, a short message to players basically stops short of explicitly confirming Patch 5 to be the final major update to the game.
“Thank you all for playing Dragon Age: The Veilguard; we were so happy with the game’s stability at launch and hope you have enjoyed our Quality of Life patches since then,” the message began.
“With the game being in a stable place, we are moving to monitor for any game-breaking bugs should those occur. Dareth shiral!”
Those final words, if you weren’t already aware, mean “Farewell,” in Dragon Age’s Elven language. Eurogamer also adds that it could be interpreted as “safe journey.”
Either way, it implies a parting of some kind. Only a few months since its release, Bioware has seemingly moved on from the first Dragon Age game to come out in a decade.
On to Mass Effect, it seems then. You can check out the full patch notes for Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s Patch 5 for yourself, below.
