Ah yes, “reapers”
It’s here! It’s here! Put on your best space shoes, it’s time to chat up some aliens.Mass Effect Legendary Editionis out right now, remastering Commander Shepard’s trilogy of adventures, and bringing back all your extraterrestrial pals with some spruced-up graphics. It’s been a long while since I last explored BioWare’s epic sci-fi RPG series, and I can’t tell you how excited I am to zoom off into the Milky Way again.
As well as overall enhancements to the entire trilogy - better textures, lighting, audio improvements and 4K support, to name a few -the Legendary Edition’s biggest changes revolve around Mass Effect 1. Combat should be a lot smoother with better accuracy, ADS and weapon cooldowns, you can now control squadmates individually too, and the Mako no longer handles like a tortoise on crack (thoughyou can revert to the old Mako settings, if you’re up for the challenge).

Mass Effect Legendary Edition is out right nowon OriginandSteam, priced at £55/$60/€60. It’s also available on Xbone and PS4 (which, admittedly, is where I’ll be playing it - how could I not buy a hard copy of my fave game series?).
If you’re also jumping into the remasters today, hardware queen Katharine has the low-down onMass Effect Legendary Edition’s PC settings. Fair warning with the PC download too: you can’t install the games separately, they all come as one big 120GB package, so make sure you have enough space for all that space.
