Mass Effect 3 is no secret; BioWareās said for some time this is a trilogy. But we can expect that that sequel will be the final chapter ā to this story arc, anyway.
Shacknews reports that Casey Hudson, the seriesā project director, told a press event in Edmonton that, āāMass Effect 3ā will be easier because we donāt have to worry about the continuity into the next one.ā
Thereās no way BioWare will walk away from a money-printing IP like this, even after three titles, so it invites speculation on just what exactly theyāll do with this universe theyāve built after Mass Effect 3. A prequel might be enticing, but youād also have the whole āin what order do I play theseā debate for people just coming to the series.
So anyway, enjoy Shepard and all the others while youāve got him, which is for the next two games. Tops.
