Dragon Age: The Veilguard Joins PS Plus Monthly Lineup Only 5 Months Post-Launch

Sony has just rolled out the lineup for PS Plus subscribers this March 2025, and it’s already causing a stir. While two of the games for this month are solid entries into the PlayStation’s online roster, what’s really turning heads is Dragon Age: The Veilguard. It’s quite unexpected to see this title pop up since it only hit the shelves last October.

Starting March 4, anyone subscribed to PS Plus, regardless of tier, can dive into Dragon Age: The Veilguard, explore Sonic Colors: Ultimate, or take a nostalgic trip with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection, all without spending an extra dime. Don’t rush, though—these gems will be sticking around for you to claim until March 31.

Of course, as the new games arrive, it’s time to wave goodbye to a few others. Make sure you grab Payday 3, High On Life, and Pac-Man World Re-Pac while you still can—the last chance to download these exiting titles is March 3.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard seemed poised to be one of EA’s flagship releases last year. Yet, in a bit of a twist, it didn’t quite hit the sales target EA was aiming for. According to their preliminary third-quarter financial report for the 2025 fiscal year, the game had reached 1.5 million players. Unfortunately, this was about half of what EA had hoped. While Dragon Age did its part in the overall disappointing sales saga, EA Sports FC 25 shouldered most of the blame.

In recent news, Bioware announced a restructuring phase in the studio, now that the development on Dragon Age: The Veilguard has wrapped up. As unfortunate as it is, this reorganization resulted in job cuts.

Andrew Wilson, EA’s CEO, shared some insights during a recent call with investors regarding the rocky release of Dragon Age: The Veilguard. He acknowledged Bioware’s effort, noting that the game was of “quality” and garnered good critical reception. Yet, he hinted that the title might have fared better with live service elements.

“To reach beyond the core fanbase, games need to directly tap into the changing player demands—those who are after shared-world experiences and deeper engagement, alongside top-notch storytelling,” explained Wilson. “Dragon Age delivered a high-quality launch and was well-received by reviewers and players alike; however, it didn’t strike a chord with enough of the market to really thrive.”
