Mass Effect Legendary Edition Reportedly Out in March

Mass Effect Legendary Edition, the remaster collection of the original Bioware RPG trilogy, releases on March 12, 2021, according to a report by Eurogamer.

The release date leak comes courtesy of Singapore retailer Shopitree and Indonesia company GSShop, both of which have posted the March 12 date, which was spotted by Twitter user Idle Sloth.

Eurogamer states that their sources believe the date to be accurate.

 

Electronic Arts has yet to confirm any official release date for Mass Effect Legendary Edition. The collection will include all single-player base content and DLC from the first three games, with “forward compatibility and targeted enhancements on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5.” It will also include all promo weapons, armors, and packs, all in a package that’s remastered and optimized for 4K Ultra HD, along with improved frame rates. BioWare hasn’t shown any gameplay footage from Legendary Edition, but with a March release date, it’s possible they’ll debut some in the near future.

“Our goal was not to remake or reimagine the original games, but to modernise the experience so that fans and new players can experience the original work in its best possible form,” BioWare
