BioWare has nearly shifted its full attention away from Dragon Age: The Veilguard, yet the dedicated team still manages to surprise fans with a small DLC weapons pack. Dragon Age enthusiasts were taken aback when the RPG's Steam page was updated to feature the Rook’s Weapons Appearance Offer as free add-on content. Although it's a modest addition, it's a pleasant surprise given EA's earlier indication that Dragon Age: The Veilguard would receive minimal future support. The fifth patch back in January focused on addressing game-breaking bugs, making this new content feel like a small miracle.

Interestingly, the Rook’s Weapons Appearances bundle is exclusively available to current owners of the game and those who buy it on PC before April 8, 2025. The specifics of the bundle remain undisclosed, though players have discovered it includes a set of Watchful skins accessible in their 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.
One Steam review commented, “Even if these appearances aren't the most, uh, beautiful things ever, they do give spooky eldritch horror vibes!” A Redditor added, "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 from critics upon its launch in October, but according to EA, it did not “resonate with a broad enough audience.” Key members of the development team announced their departure from BioWare in late January, as much of the staff faced layoffs or transitions to other roles within the company. At that time, EA informed IGN that the studio was now fully focused on the next Mass Effect game.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard was added to the PlayStation Plus March 2025 titles lineup, just four months after its release. No further plans for its future have been disclosed.
