YouTuber Doctor Disaster shared, “I have an acquaintance in the retail world, someone who runs nine stores that sells video games. And I am hearing that these ratios that we’re seeing in damn near every video released for Dragon Age: The Veilguard, these ratios are correlating with piss poor pre-sales data. People are not connecting with The Veilguard because Dragon Age games are supposed to be dark and gritty and this just looks completely soft.”
Craig Skistimas aka Stuttering Craig who owns and hosts the Side Scrollers Podcast channel informed That Park Place that his retail source, who previously indicated that pre-order sales for both Star Wars Outlaws and Assassin’s Creed Shadows, pre-orders for Dragon Age: The Veilguard are “not Astro Bot numbers.”
As of this morning, the deluxe edition of the game was 14th on the PlayStation Store for pre-orders while the base game was 20th.
