Following layoffs at BioWare that saw the exit of many key developers of Dragon Age: The Veilguard, one former writer on the series has moved to reassure fans by saying: “DA isn't dead because it's yours now.

According to IGN, "a number" of BioWare developers have been placed by EA into other equivalent roles within the company. Howeer, a smaller number of Dragon Age staff members are also seeing their positions shelved, and are being offered time to apply to other roles within the company (if they so wish).

The Veilguard finished, Bioware has set its sights to the stars with the next Mass Effect game. As such, the developer restructured the studio, claiming it does not require the support of a full studio.
