BioWare currently has no plans for any Dragon Age: The Veilguard "downloadable expansions," according to a recent report by Rolling Stone. Speaking to BioWare creative director John Epler, the online magazine reported that Dragon Age developer- publisher BioWare confirmed that they have no plans to make DLCs for Veilguard as it was "now complete." Moreover, with Veilguard being officially launched, BioWare has now shifted its efforts to the next installment in its military sci-fi franchise, Mass Effect.

While further details on BioWare's plans for a Veilguard DLC weren't shared, Epler did give comments on what the devs think about releasing a remastered collection of older Dragon Age games, similar to what they have done with the Mass Effect Legendary Edition which modernized Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, and Mass Effect 3 for today's consoles.

Epler noted that while he would love to see a Dragon Age collection be released, remastering the first three Dragon Age games would be challenging as they originally used EA's proprietary game engines. Epler explained, "It's something that's not going to be as easy as Mass Effect, but we do love the original games. Never say never, I guess that's what it comes down to."
