Join the Bonus Accessory crew every Friday as they dive head first into all things Xbox, Xbox Game Pass, & PC gaming. The Mass Effect: Legendary Edition has surprisingly become one of the most anticipated releases for many in 2021, after it was finally revealed late last year. While excitement has still stayed high on the project, many aspects and details regarding it have remained hidden as its Spring release date has begun to creep up. That is until recently. This week, we examine the new info dump regarding the remastered versions of Bioware’s legendary trilogy, why it feels to be somewhere caught between a remake and a remaster, and what Bioware has to do to ensure the Legendary Edition helps cement Mass Effect’s future in the eyes of its fans. Plus, Drew Murray, Design Director on The Initiative’s new Perfect dark entry is stepping away from his position within the studio. While career fluidity in the games industry is common, should fans of the upcoming reimagining be a bit concerned regarding the future of the project with Murray’s exit, or is it’s seemingly long dev cycle a big enough safety net for the vision of this game? Also, the Embracer Group is officially acquiring Borderlands development studio Gearbox to the tune of $1.3 billion dollars. What does this mean for the future of the Frisco-based studio and their long running IPs like Borderlands and Brothers in Arms? All of this and much more on the newest episode of the Game Pass Gamecast! Be sure to subscribe and turn on notifications so you never miss a show when they drop every Friday morning!
