Which as per
this Kotaku report notes that the project is very early in development, with
BioWare's Mike Gamble overseeing production. Whose credits include the excellent
Mass Effect 2 and
Mass Effect 3, as well as the not-so excellent
Mass Effect Andromeda and
Anthem.
With the Edmonton studio also currently working on
Dragon Age 4, this very early new Mass Effect game is probably at least three to four years out from release. That is, if it's a project that goes forward.
This also ties in nicely with BioWare head honcho Casey Hudson (who spearheaded the original Mass Effect) posting some unused concept art from the Mass Effect vaults for N7 Day.
As it's been a couple of years now since Andromeda, the legacy of Mass Effect is still strong thanks to the brilliant trilogy that started it all. In fact, if BioWare is planning to re-visit this world we'd also love to see the first three games get the proper remaster treatment.
