Hopefully the conversations and romantic opportunities are what the series's best writers returned to the project for, since a meaningful conversation can go a long way with the series' most devoted fans. And as it happens, we've been meaning to reconnect with Miranda for some time now. The chance to "reconnect" with returning characters is being heavily emphasized by BioWare - a wise move, considering that the lack of closure (apart from a phone call) in ME3's final act was one element fans took particular issue with. Shepard's new living quarters, a combat arena and of course, the Silversun Casino (previously seen in the teased artwork) are all confirmed, even if they have yet to be shown in detail. When the action is over, the new locations unlocked on the Citadel remain to be explored at the player's leisure. The fight will be reuniting Shepard with characters from the first two games of the series, most notably Urdnot Wrex (pictured in the DLC's screenshots).

Finding out the truth will involve exploring the Citadel's wards, and the new clandestine Council Archives (and probably a good amount of combat). Rumors of story-based cooperative missions being introduced with the DLC had surfaced some time ago, but it seems Mass Effect 3's story will remain a singleplayer experience.įorgetting what we had hoped for, here's what we know: the Citadel DLC sends Shepard back to the seat of galactic government to uncover the minds behind a conspiracy with him and his crew in their crosshairs. Today - as promised - the minds behind Mass Effect 3 have announced the price and release date for both the Citadel DLC, adding new content to the singleplayer portion of the game, and the Reckoning multiplayer expansion.Ī return to the Citadel will bring new locations and crew interactions (with new threats and enemies), but sadly, players won't be discovering them alongside their friends. All good things must come to an end, even a series as profitable and popular as Mass Effect.
