Development should hopefully ramp up after the launch ofDragon Age: The Veilguardlater this year.
Since its initial reveal, very little has actually been confirmed aboutMass Effect 5but we know that it’ll follow on fromMass Effect 3more so thanAndromedaand will mark the return of Liara T’Soni.
The game will also see the Geth and Krogan return, according to various pieces of official art, and will be a single-player launch that follows the main trilogy’s more hub-world/linear format overAndromeda’s open world approach.
It’s likely we won’t get another major tease until this year’s N7 Day on 7 November.

WithDA: The Veilguardonly set to finally launch later this year, it stands to reason thatMass Effect 5is in the early stages of pre-production with full development only set to begin followingDA: The Veilguard’s release.
This means the game is likely several years away from launch, possibly even making it a next-gen game. I fear patience is going to be required here.
