With the galaxy in peril, it is up to Commander Shepard to save it but the introduction toMass Effect 3did not shy away from the destruction already brought to the universe.

Showing the horrors of the war firsthand, an opening scene shows a city that would look quite familiar to some: Vancouver.

The Canadian skyline is shown for mere seconds at the start of the game but eagle-eyed fans noticed the familiar skyscape. Additionally, it is unsurprising thatBioWarewould include Vancouver considering the majority of its offices are based in Canada.
