Every year, N7 Day (November 7th) sees fans celebrate and reminisce on the fantastic Mass Effect series, but this year's milestone is a little different - it's the first without developer BioWare, which was recently closed at the hands of parent company EA. And as expected, love from former developers was pouring in from all sides.
Original Mass Effect game director Casey Hudson (who also led development on Star Wars: KOTOR) is pretty hopeful for the sci-fi universe's future. "Doesn't feel right to say 'happy' N7Day this year, but I'm optimistic that Mass Effect will live on! When Mass Effect makes its triumphant return, it will be thanks to the outpouring of love from players around the world," he tweets. "Thank you for sharing what it means to you."
Mass Effect 5 - or Mass Effect Universe - project lead Michael Gamble gave a big thank you to fans over on social media: "You all are truly amazing. The love and passion for this…universe…is incredible. Even in worst days, we could always count on you. To all the stories left untold. Happy N7 Day."
The original trilogy's composer Sam Hulick reveals that he had actually been chatting to BioWare about returning to write music for Mass Effect 5, via a new blog , though nothing had been set in stone. To celebrate N7 Day, Hulick's blog post also includes a re-scored version of the leaked Mass Effect Universe trailer - those bouncing dark synths at the end are just chef's kiss.
