The Veilguard only released a few days ago to patient fans after a decade of waiting for the RPG - and as the community is still exploring all the long-awaited game has to offer, BioWare says Mass Effect stans should expect a quieter N7 Day than usual this year.

It’s N7 Day, the annual Mass Effect holiday in which BioWare gestures at the next game while fans have a field day with merch and fan art. But this year, the team just put out another game, Dragon Age: The Veilguard and doesn’t want to steal the game’s thunder with a bunch of teases for a game that’s still a ways out.

Fans of the Mass Effect series looking forward to N7 Day shouldn't expect miracles. Studio BioWare has announced that this year's edition of the celebration will be more modest due to the recent release of Dragon Age: The Veilguard.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is available on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.

We already knew Dragon Age: The Veilguard ’s first patch was coming this week, but since it landed on N7 Day, it also came with a few surprises. The fantasy RPG is one of BioWare’s more polished games, but even so, there are plenty of bugs for the team to squash, based on the patch notes it just put out.

The Veilguard's one-week anniversary looming, BioWare has released its first big patch for the well-received fantasy action-RPG; and as an added treat, the studio has also tossed in some Mass Effect themed armour to mark this year's N7 Day.

The Veilguard Patch 1, bringing with it a number of bug fixes as well as special cosmetic-only armor that celebrates N7 Day. The patch addresses a handful of graphical and gameplay issues, including problems with Hardin and Taash repeating the same banter indefinitely.
