Unconfirmed: Mass Effect 3 to Feature Multiplayer

I’m not sure this is a story I’d put too much stock in, but both NowGamer and MEGamers are reporting on a four-player multiplayer mode for BioWare’s upcoming Mass Effect 3, MEGamers offering the following details:

‘¢ The game will feature a Horde style multiplayer mode with (crap loads) of maps.
‘¢ It will also have the regular modes such as Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch and Capture the Flag.
‘¢ The Horde mode will have objectives like Capture The Flag, King of the Hill, and simple shoot-to-kill ‘˜waves’ as well.
‘¢ Up to four players can play cooperatively in the Horde mode.
‘¢ Maps are (fairly small) but well designed.
‘¢ Players can choose from 6 different classes, or use a prebuilt one’s. Our source didn’t confirm what those classes were, but we reckon all those from ME2 will be present.
‘¢ There will be a level cap of 60.
‘¢ Some of the enemies were confirmed as well: Geth, Marauders, Husks, and a new enemy type called Brutes. The source described them as insanely (huge ass).
‘¢ The game will also feature a ‘˜multiplayer store’. The store will carry upgrades for weapons, etc. and other items.
‘¢ Players will be able to buy said upgrades and items by earning in-game money based on their performance in the multiplayer. Our source wasn’t sure if the in-game money can be earned via the single player campaign as well, (but I doubt it. Seems like the (singleplayer and multiplayer) modes will be separate.)
