It’s Official: Mass Effect 3 is close after EA leaks pre-order details on its own website
A sequel to Mass Effect 2 and the adventures of elite human soldier Commander Shepard, has now been confirmed after Electronic Arts posted a pre-order listing for Mass Effect 3 on its store website that confirmed the game’s imminent release.
Shortly after the listing, Electronic Arts took down the details of Mass Effect 3, but not the page (which can be found here), thanks to Google. The page says nothing more than the price of $59.99 and TBD. The pre-order button doesn’t work.
Bioware, the company that develops the Mass Effect series, was acquired by Electronic Arts in 2008.
The timing of the leak, couldn’t be worse. Bioware was hoping for a big surprise and big announcement at tonight’s Spike Video Game Awards for Mass Effect 3. But EA has bungled it up, quickly taking down the page that detailed the plot of Mass Effect 3.
Mass Effect 3 Details
Thanks to GameSpy who had a screen shot of the pre-order page, I’m able to share features about the game.
If you are having trouble reading the text, here’s a copy of what’s included in the screenshot:
Earth is burning. Striking from beyond known space, a race of terrifying machines have begun their destruction of the human race. As Commander Shepard, an Alliance Marine, your only hope for saving mankind is to rally the civilizations of the galaxy and launch one final mission to take back the Earth.
