Bioware is about half way through developing Mass Effect 4

Mass Effect 4 has been in the making for a little while now, we got our first tease of the game last year when Bioware showed off some screenshots but the team seems to have made significant progress since then. The developer had a lot on its plate when the game was first teased last year as Dragon Age: Inquisition was still in development but now that Inquisition is gearing up to release later this year, there are a few more hands available for the next Mass Effect title.

According to a tweet from BioWare Montreal Studio Director, Yanick Roy, the game is “somewhere in the middle” stages of development.

Mass-Effect-3

The game itself probably won't be released for some time but we do know a few things about the game. We've already seen a few screenshots but we also know that the game may not even feature shepherd's story at all, which was news that divided the fan base a little bit. However, that's not all, there has also been a rumour going around this week after a retailer posted a listing for a next gen remaster of the Mass Effect trilogy.

KitGuru Says: I'm glad that Mass Effect 4 is being worked on and hasn't been rushed but I'd like the events of the Shepherd trilogy to have some effect on the next game. I don't mean old characters coming back but it would be nice to have a little nod towards the past events. What do you guys think? Are you looking forward to the next Mass Effect? How do you feel about leaving Shepherd's story behind completely?

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.

  1. I think that whether or not Shepherd should be a character should depend on the choices you made at by he end of the 3rd part.
