All 13 bug-fixing quality assurance (QA) staff who formed a union while working on the upcoming game Dragon Age: Dreadwolf have been laid off. The staff, employed by QA outsourcing company Keywords, faced challenges in forming the union due to remote work issues. Keywords confirmed their departure, citing the end of a fixed-term contract. The union has filed an employment standards complaint for minimal severance. This follows the previous layoffs of 50 permanent BioWare staff, including long-time team members. Dragon Age: Dreadwolf's release date remains uncertain.
