Electronic Arts needs some good news to offset the word that 1,500 of their team members will be laid off by March 2010. They got it with the release of Dragon Age: Origins, the recently released RPG from their BioWare studio. While the game has only been available for just over a week, it looks like their downloadable content has been popular so far.

Speaking at the BMO Capital Markets 17th Annual Digital Entertainment Conference (the audio replay can be heard at EA's investor site), EA's executive vice president and CFO Eric Brown stated that the game's DLC have generated "well past $1 million" in revenues. BioWare has already stated they have long term plans for more downloadable content for the game.
