The Official BioWare Gear Store, operated by DPI Merch, offers new and returning items, notably a replica of Commander Shepard’s helmet pre‑ordered for $175. The store also sells branded apparel and accessories. While fans mourn BioWare’s closure, the merch release underscores how EA keeps the franchise alive through licensing, even as former employees seek new opportunities.
