Happy N7 Day!
It’s tough keeping a big secret (and we really struggled to keep this one a surprise) but now it’s official: today we announced the Mass Effect Legendary Edition! We’ve heard (for years!) your requests for a Mass Effect remaster, so we’re super happy to finally reveal that we’ve been working on a remastered edition of the Mass Effect trilogy.
For many months now, our team at BioWare has been hard at work updating the textures, shaders, models, effects, and technical features of three enormous games. Our goal was not to remake or reimagine the original games, but to modernize the experience so that fans and new players can experience the original work in its best possible form. It’s been amazing to see the adventures of Commander Shepard take on new life in super-sharp resolution, faster framerates, and beautiful visual enhancements. As game developers, we always hope that our games will transcend their original platforms. Having the opportunity to remaster the trilogy means that the fruits of a decade of our work will live on, and will be experienced better and clearer than ever before.
Mass Effect Legendary Edition will include single-player base content and DLC from Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, and Mass Effect 3, plus promo weapons, armors, and packs – all remastered and optimized for 4k Ultra HD. It will be available in Spring 2021 for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC, with forward compatibility and targeted enhancements on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5. More information to come in the new year!
Meanwhile here at BioWare, a veteran team has been hard at work envisioning the next chapter of the Mass Effect universe. We are in early stages on the project and can’t say any more just yet, but we’re looking forward to sharing our vision for where we’ll be going next.
For me personally, Mass Effect represents years of work and countless special memories, so every year I feel incredibly fortunate to celebrate N7 Day with players around the world. Thank you so much for supporting us over the years. I can’t wait to continue our adventure together – revisiting our favorite memories in the Mass Effect universe, and creating brand new ones!

Seems like a weird miss not to call it something like Spectre Edition, N7 Collection, or just Mass Effect Trilogy.
Sounds like no gameplay revamp or release date.
Time to form an unholy alliance with the danger hairs and pressure for a 5th ending to Mass Effect 3.

Haha fuck these rumors. Frostbite engine, new quests... it was all lies. Filthy lies. Jason Schreier is a liar.

I'm not surprised in any way, shape or form. If people are willing to buy garbage like NFS Hot Pursuit "remaster" (graphic comparison here: https://www.purepc.pl/need-for-speed-hot-pursuit-remaster-vs-oryginal-na-screenach) - why even bother spending money on enhancing games?

Just like the ones hard at work on that Dragon Age 4, right?

Look at the date when I posted, it was before the official news. Gamepost leaked the articles early and removed them quickly so only screenshots were available.

Old team from anthem and one team from dragon age. They have a lot new people. They've been heavy restructured since 2019, moved to giant studio.
Oh, the shitshow will be truly amazing.

No offense, but it's your fault for thinking this was going to be anything other than this.
Official page is up.

Unreal Engine 3? There's the Frostbite logo on the end of the page, but I really doubt they remade it in their new engine

There was a chance, considering how C&C got remastered.
Edit:
But then again when I think about it, C&C was mostly a face lift... like this one.

Did they at least put ray tracing?
Good thing that teaser told me that wasn't actual game play. I was pretty confused.
Anthem gets a lot of hate and it did have some issues, but the core gameplay loop was pretty fun. If they would've went for a better single player campaign instead of aiming at the perpetual looter shooter Destiny genre, I think it'd have been much better received (alternatively, made more content, better loot, etc.).
EDIT: I'm serious. If you're rating this and haven't played it, you should try it. You can usually find it for like $5 or less. Assuming it hasn't changed for the worse since the overhaul (I played it before that and not since), you might like it.
