Mass Effect Leaks Reveal Canceled BioWare Game's Story Would Have Accounted for 'All' Choices From Previous Games

BioWare's canceled Mass Effect game, known as Mass Effect: Universe, has recently leaked more details about its story. Former technical director Romain Toutain revealed during a livestream that the game would have taken into account all choices made in the first three Mass Effect titles. The game aimed to create parallel universes by combining saves from the original games, resulting in different timelines for players to explore.

Toutain also mentioned that the game would have allowed players to freely generate timelines, similar to the mechanics found in Dragon Age: Inquisition and the Keep application. The cancellation of the project came shortly after the release of the ill-fated Mass Effect: Andromeda in 2017. Fans are now outraged, with a petition gaining over 185,000 signatures and calling for the game's revival.
