Mass Effect: Andromeda News | Hope For DLC?, Sales Figures, Novels, Reyes Background Details & More!

Like stated in the video, the patching schedule I think will impact DLC release dates more than anything so, in this game's case, i don't know if the normal rules apply. It appears that patch 1.09 in July is where the game became the most "complete" in my opinion so, speculating with the haphazard development of this game and the fact that the final comic in the "Mass Effect Discovery" series, which relates to the Quarian involvement in the Andromeda Initiative, got pushed back to the end of October after its initial August release, I wouldn't be surprised to see the the first SP DLC is released on Tuesday, Nov 7th, N7 Day and almost the 10th anniversary of the franchise (Nov 16th, 2007)

It would be wonderful if they got to coincide the DLC's release with the N7 day, a hell of an anniversary

Last SP patch: 1.09 - July, 4

The latest is the 1.10
 (on July 31), but that's a hotfix related to MP

With BioWare Montreal no longer existing, the likelihood of SP DLC for MEA is almost 0%. Who would even be working on it?

BioWare Austin is busy with SWTOR, and BioWare Edmonton is busy with Anthem and DA4. I know folks are desperate to hang on to that last thread of hope, but the writing is on the wall.

The only reason MP continues to get support is because EA didn't dissolve the post-launch MP team for MEA. If anything comes N7 Day, it will be new MP content for MEA.

I'm hoping for DLC, but as to whether or not it will actually happen is still up to BW/EA.

If it does happen, I would assume the people at Edmonton would handle it as they are now handling patches.
It's also possible that Motive could break a group of people at the core of ME:A off for DLC work.

Also, I would assume any DLC plans would be halted until the patching process has brought the game up to a launch standard (which I think v1.09 has) and my gut tells me that the extensive patching process that ME:A went through to bring it up to snuff would almost inevitable delay any and all potential DLC launches much like the EC did with ME3's DLC launch schedule, although to much greater effect.

Didn't we all agree to call it dead if there was nothing by September?

I don't know about others but I'm not "desperate to hang on to that last thread of hope". I'm on a message board and it's entirely speculation. What else is there to talk about? Have you seen some of the threads still active on this page alone? No thanks.

You know what happens if there is no SP DLC? I'll play something else.

Nope. Still september when it will reach the time between ME3 and Leviathan DLC release (6 months).
After that i don't expect anything else.

This is a case where pessimism is warranted, in my opinion. Expect nothing, that way if something actually does come out it'll be a pleasant surprise.

Yes. Though it seems Bioware isn't doing MP DLC this time and instead just adding the characters and weapons in patches. 

If we don't get anything, by the end of September I don't think DLC is happening.
