Mass Effect Jumps to New Medium
Bioware and Dark Horse Comics recently announced that the Mass Effect series will be jumping to a new medium: a series of comic books entitled Mass Effect: Redemption. Like the novels Mass Effect: Revelation and Mass Effect: Ascension, the four-issue series will add more detail to the universe of Mass Effect.
The story, penned by Bioware’s Lead Writer Mac Walters, is set near the beginning of Mass Effect 2. It follows Commander Shepard and Dr. Liara T’Soni as they fight together for survival in the Terminus Systems, a dangerous area of space beyond the jurisdiction and political influence of the Citadel Council and Human Systems Alliance. Walters mentioned in an interview with IGN that the current plan is to tie the story to downloadable content for ME2.
The first comic book in the series will be out in January of next year.
