BioWare announces Mass Effect Legendary Edition

The right choice.

BioWare has announced Mass Effect Legendary Edition.

In a blog post on its website, BioWare boss Casey Hudson said this a remastered edition of the Mass Effect trilogy.

"For many months now, our team at BioWare has been hard at work updating the textures, shaders, models, effects, and technical features of three enormous games," Hudson said.

"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.

"It's been amazing to see the adventures of Commander Shepard take on new life in super-sharp resolution, faster framerates, and beautiful visual enhancements. As game developers, we always hope that our games will transcend their original platforms. Having the opportunity to remaster the trilogy means that the fruits of a decade of our work will live on, and will be experienced better and clearer than ever before."
