This is the first I've heard of this- did Veilguard do badly? I thought it was reasonably popular.

Reasonably popular, 1.5 million copies, means it didn't make all the money so it's a complete failure to AAA publishers.

It missed the predicted revenue by 50%, so might as well be carthago

It “engaged” 1.5 million players. That includes EA Play and Game Pass, so actual sales are even lower.

Yeah sounds about right.
