The second chapter in BioWare’s epic sci-fi RPG saga is officially a go for early next year. Although specifics about the game remain shrouded in secrecy, BioWare has confirmed today that Mass Effect 2 is in development for PC and Xbox 360 and is scheduled to ship in early 2010 for both platforms — sorry, Sony fans, still no PS3 version for you!
“We’re going to surpass the extraordinary gaming experience we brought our fans in Mass Effect by delivering intensified combat and expanded weapon options as well as increased depth of planet exploration, all while delivering a powerful, emotionally engaging story,” said Dr. Ray Muzyka, General Manager and CEO, BioWare and General Manager and Vice President, EA. “Mass Effect 2 is shaping up to be an unforgettable RPG-shooter experience, taking players on a non-stop roller-coaster ride filled with stunning plot twists and no-holds-barred action.”
