The long-awaited follow-up to 2012's Mass Effect 3 is one step closer as BioWare unveils a new teaser titled Epsilon.
The Big Picture For everyone else wondering if we'd ever get the answers to what happened after the dramatic climax of 2012's Mass Effect 3, we might have an ending in sight as developer BioWare has marked N7 Day, its annual Mass Effect celebration day with a blog post offering a tantalizing hint at the title of Mass Effect 5. The video game developer then dropped a teaser trailer for the game at the same time.
The post made by Mass Effect boss Mike Gamble was also notable for the seemingly mundane list of Mass Effect merchandise that was available for purchase until fans began taking a closer look, finding binary code hidden within the post. The code spells out the word "Epsilon," which has the potential to mean many things.
As a direct follow-up to Mass Effect 3, it would technically be Mass Effect 4 — the game that followed up the third installment, a spin-off titled Mass Effect: Andromeda, was a standalone that received mixed reviews and was generally a disappointment, leading to focus on a sequel to Mass Effect 3 over a decade later. Gamble admitted many questions from fans have been on the minds of the creative team at BioWare too, as he explained in his blog post.
And of course, to those questions, there are answers, but you'll have to wait to hear them. And anything we do say won't be easy to find, just like you've come to expect from our #N7Day teases." Mass Effect 5 remains in the pre-production stage at the moment, while the majority of BioWare's efforts are dedicated to completing the highly anticipated Dragon Age: Dreadwolf. The upcoming installment in the space opera series is expected to unfold hundreds of years after the events of the original trilogy and will once again bring the story around and within the Milky Way galaxy.
