BioWare Talks Possible Mass Effect Spin-offs

While they’re hardly committing to anything, it’s interesting to note that some BioWare developers, talking to OXM for a Mass Effect retrospective article, have discussed the possibility of spin-offs focusing on some of the side characters Mass Effect players have already met and had adventures with, including Garrus and the Illusive Man. Here’s a snip:

The clear favourite for Shepard’s replacement appears to be our old Turian chum Garrus, despite his insidious penchant for calibrating things. “There’s so much that could be told in the Mass Effect universe,” Hudson began. “It’d be cool to do something completely unrelated to the larger storyline, like a story about a private investigator on the Citadel. Or maybe something detailing Garrus’ time in C-Sec.”

Everman’s also carrying a candle for the G-Man. “While being one of Shepard’s most loyal friends, Garrus has also had some of the most driven personal goals. He’s a hero in his own right, as Archangel and beyond. Who wouldn’t want to see the further adventures of the bold, charming Garrus Valkarian (there’s a lot of guns out there to calibrate).” Watamaniuk, however, reckons “a game centred on brutal Krogan combat with more of a melee focus could be pretty exciting”. I’m sure Grunt would be up for it.
