Weeks after EA said Dragon Age: The Veilguard "did not resonate with a broad enough audience," BioWare's RPG is coming to PlayStation Plus as a free monthly game

It's not even been four full months since Dragon Age: The Veilguard released, but the RPG is already heading to PlayStation Plus as one of the three monthly games that subscribers will be able to claim and keep next month.

Announced in a post on the PlayStation Blog today, Dragon Age: The Veilguard will be available to claim from March 4 for PS Plus subscribers, no matter what tier they're paying for. After claiming it, you'll be able to download and play the RPG at any time as long as you're still subscribed – it's not like the library of games available to PS Plus Extra members, where titles occasionally disappear from whence they came.

Earlier this month in an earnings call, EA CEO Andrew Wilson stated that despite The Veilguard's "high-quality launch" and being "well-reviewed by critics and those who played," the RPG ultimately "did not resonate with a broad enough audience in this highly competitive market." In the same call, EA's chief financial officer, Stuart Canfield, stated that the game "underperformed."

  • Starfield Starfield reportedly gets its long-rumored PS5 release next month, ending two years of Xbox exclusivity for the RPG

It seems pretty wild to make the RPG available to keep via a subscription service so soon after its release, but at least it'll hopefully give more players the chance to try it out, and perhaps introduce it to that broader audience that EA was hoping for. In our Dragon Age: The Veilguard review, we said it was "an approachable, expansive action-oriented RPG and feels like a true end to whatever the franchise was before," and while it's "undoubtedly different in many ways from its predecessors and takes lessons learned from Mass Effect to heart, there's a lot to love."

Also on March 4, PS Plus subscribers will be able to claim Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection (which includes a selection of 13 TMNT games from Konami) as well as Sonic Colors: Ultimate, making for a trio of incredibly solid offerings. Subscribers will have until March 31 to grab them, so don't miss out.

Deputy News Editor

I'm GamesRadar+'s Deputy News Editor, working alongside the rest of the news team to deliver cool gaming stories that we love. After spending more hours than I can count filling The University of Sheffield's student newspaper with Pokemon and indie game content, and picking up a degree in Journalism Studies, I started my career at GAMINGbible where I worked as a journalist for over a year and a half. I then became TechRadar Gaming's news writer, where I sourced stories and wrote about all sorts of intriguing topics. In my spare time, you're sure to find me on my Nintendo Switch or PS5 playing through story-driven RPGs like Xenoblade Chronicles and Persona 5 Royal, nuzlocking old Pokemon games, or going for a Victory Royale in Fortnite.
