BioWare’s influence is still everywhere even after the studio was shut down.
EA closed it in late October during a broader restructuring that also canceled Mass Effect 5.
Alumni projects like Exodus and Fate of the Old Republic are moving forward, and the same design approach shows up in The Witcher 3 and Baldur’s Gate 3.
The studio became foundational interactive storytelling DNA rather than just a company that can be closed on paper.
