EA Stock Drops 17% Following Dragon Age: The Veilguard’s Disappointing Sales

One of Electronic Arts’ largest declines in stock price occurred after the release of their Q3 2025 financial report, amounting to a 17% drop.

Veilguard” didn’t sell as well as expected, with only 1.5 million copies sold instead of the projected 3 million or more.

As a gaming enthusiast, I’ve been following Bioware’s journey closely. The success story of Dragon Age: Inquisition with 12 million copies sold is truly impressive. However, the release of Anthem, another Bioware title, didn’t quite hit the mark for many, selling an astounding 2 million units in its initial week alone – a stark contrast to the former’s success.

Besides attributing its adjusted outlook for the year to Veilguard, Electronic Arts (EA) also linked it to EA Sports FC 25, a project that fell short of its internal estimates as well.

Due to a 17% drop in the company’s share price, it has lost around $6 billion from its total market worth. Currently, the share price stands at its minimum point over the last year.

It’s unclear what the future holds for EA and its main series, but it appears that EA is focusing on the upcoming installment in the Battlefield series now, as they have hinted at providing more information about it at the start of the year, suggesting a possible release later this year.
