Mass Effect's Commander Shepard Actors, Destiny Community Help #SaveMassEffect Petition Cross 200,000 Signatures

The #SaveMassEffect movement has picked up even more steam after videos from both Commander Shepard actors – and even posts from the Destiny community – helped its petition reach 200,000 signatures.

It's been a whirlwind week for Mass Effect players and fans of the now-shuttered legendary RPG developer BioWare. After EA announced it would be closing the studio and canceling development for Mass Effect 5, fans took action, and the result is something to behold.

In the first weekend of the #SaveMassEffect movement and its accompanying petition, more than 200,000 verified users have offered their signature to the cause. That's thanks in part to the wild amount of social media attention it's garnered in just a few days, but two of its most prominent supporters have already been backing Mass Effect for decades.

"You know what I like to think about?" actor Jennifer Hale, who famously played the female version of Commander Shepard for the first three Mass Effect games, said in a video over the weekend. "I like to think about a world where the fans come together to create a Kickstarter, and then a couple of investors join them, and then a really cool game company joins them. Then a collective is formed to bring Mass Effect back to life for the community, for the creatives – for all of us – and it's amazing. That's what I like to think about."

It's a scenario that fans have pushed for, and one Hale believes in. She had already spoken out about the sadness surrounding BioWare's closure after a leaked trailer for its canceled Mass Effect: Universe project found its way online.
