BioWare has largely shifted its focus away from Dragon Age: The Veilguard, but the dedicated team still working on the game has managed to surprise fans with a new addition: a small DLC weapons pack. The RPG's Steam page was recently updated to include the Rook’s Weapons Appearance Offer, a free add-on that has sparked excitement among the Dragon Age community. This move comes as a pleasant surprise, especially after EA had indicated that Dragon Age: The Veilguard would not receive significant future support. The fifth patch released in January had promised to focus primarily on fixing game-breaking bugs, making this new content feel like a small miracle.
The Rook’s Weapons Appearance Offer is exclusively available to current owners of the game and those who purchase it on PC before April 8, 2025. While the specifics of the bundle remain undisclosed, players have discovered that it includes a set of Watchful skins accessible in the Rook's in-game room. It's uncertain whether this offer will extend to the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X | S versions of the game.
Feedback from the community has been positive, with one Steam review noting, "Even if these appearances aren't the most, uh, beautiful things ever, they do give spooky eldritch horror vibes!" A Redditor also expressed appreciation, stating, "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 upon its October launch, but according to EA, it did not capture a wide enough audience. In late January, key team members announced their departure from BioWare, as many staff members were either laid off or reassigned within the company. EA informed IGN that the studio was now fully focused on the next installment of the Mass Effect series.
Dragon Age: The Veilguard was added to the PlayStation Plus March 2025 titles just four months after its release. No further plans for the game's future have been disclosed.
