Dragon Age: Veilguard Surprise Free Weapon DLC Released

Authore: EricUpdate:May 25,2025

BioWare has nearly moved on from Dragon Age: The Veilguard, but the remaining team continues to surprise fans with new content, including a small DLC weapons pack. Dragon Age enthusiasts were shocked when the RPG's Steam page was updated to include the free Rook’s Weapons Appearance Offer. Although EA had previously indicated that the game wouldn't receive significant support going forward, this addition comes as a pleasant surprise. Following the fifth patch in January, which focused on addressing game-breaking bugs, the introduction of new content, even if minimal, feels like a small miracle.

Interestingly, the Rook’s Weapons Appearances bundle is exclusive to current owners of the game and those who buy it on PC before April 8, 2025. While the specifics of the bundle remain undisclosed, players have deduced that it includes a set of Watchful skins available in the Rook’s in-game room. It's uncertain whether this offer will extend to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X | S versions of the game.

A Steam review noted, “Even if these appearances aren't the most, uh, beautiful things ever, they do give spooky eldritch horror vibes!” On Reddit, a user remarked, "It's cosmetic DLC, but it's essentially free DLC for a game that's practically no longer getting newer content. I'll live with that."

Dragon Age: The Veilguard received positive reviews upon its October launch but, according to EA, didn't connect with a wide enough audience. Key team members announced their departure from BioWare in late January, as many staff members were either laid off or reassigned to other projects within the company. At that time, EA informed IGN that the studio was now fully focused on the next installment of the Mass Effect series.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard was added to the PlayStation Plus March 2025 titles just four months after its release. No further plans for the game's future have been disclosed.
