EA shut down BioWare last week and canceled its in-development Mass Effect game. Fans of the series continue to mourn what could have been, noting that the events of that first teaser shown almost six years ago may now go forever unexplained.
Or perhaps not. Twitter account The Cult of Shepard highlighted what fans have pieced together in the six years since that first teaser, resigning themselves to the reality that what we were shown will now never be explained. Except it will, as series director Michael Gamble replied “yes” to the post asking if anyone will ever be able to explain it.
Before fans got too carried away and assumed Gamble knows something we don’t about the future of the series, he added in a follow-up that all he means by that is he can explain it, not that the game, which we now know to be called Mass Effect Universe, will be rescued, uncancelled, and eventually released after all.
That initial teaser was shown during The Game Awards in 2020 and was our first confirmation that Liara will be, or would have been, in the new Mass Effect game. Gamble’s response to the post positing what else is going on in that teaser appears to confirm that the other dots Mass Effect fans have managed to connect over the years were spot on.
Liara is shown trekking up a snowy mountain, believed to be on the fictional planet Alchera. When she reaches the top, she picks up and brushes the snow off what appears to be an N7 helmet.
