Former BioWare writer Patrick Weekes, who worked at the studio from 2005 to 2025 and led the writing team for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, shared his thoughts on the EA deal, which was bought by a consortium of investors for $55 billion.
Weekes believes that the new leadership is only interested in football games and the Battlefield series, which will force EA to reconsider its attitude towards progressive ideas in its projects. Against this background, BioWare may be closed.
Some fans hope that EA will sell BioWare, but many people doubt that anyone will buy the studio at all, whose latest games were Anthem and Dragon Age: The Veilguard.
