BioWare has announced that it is currently working on the next Mass Effect game (which we’ll henceforth refer to as Mass Effect 5 as it is the fifth mainline game). The upcoming RPG looks to feature a storyline that may act as a direct sequel to the plotlines in both Mass Effect 3 and Mass Effect: Andromeda.
As Mass Effect: Legendary Edition has long since been released–check out our Mass Effect: Legendary Edition review if you’re on the fence about whether to pick it up–and Anthem 2.0 abandoned, BioWare looks to be fully focusing on both Mass Effect 5 and Dragon Age Dreadwolf. Below, we go over everything we currently know about Mass Effect 5, which admittedly isn’t all that much.
Release date
BioWare hasn’t yet announced a release date for Mass Effect 5. Given that we know a little bit more about the upcoming Dragon Age and considering that game was first teased two years prior to the announcement of Mass Effect 5, we assume BioWare will release Dreadwolf before Mass Effect–BioWare did say Dreadwolf is already playable all the way through–but we’ll have to wait and see.
