We don’t know what the delay was about, but Amazon has finally formally announced development will begin on the Mass Effect TV show. For those who don’t know, Amazon first announced this series in 2021.
Daniel Casey (10 Cloverfield Lane) has been hired both to write the scripts and and executive produce the show, working alongside Bioware’s Michael Gamble and the prolific Avi Arad. Karim Zreik for Cedar Tree Productions is also listed as a producer.
The big question no one knows is what the Mass Effect TV show is about. Is it an adaption of the ME trilogy, or does it tell its own story? Are we getting the male or the female Shepard? Or will there be some innovative thing where we push a button and follow the gender of our choice through the whole show?
I actually have not played any Mass Effect game, so I won’t be making any specific references here. I do know EA is thinking about another ME game, but it might be a while since they just launched Dragon Age: The Veilguard and announced “now Mass Effect 5 has our undivided attention.” Perhaps if they hurry they can get the game finished in time for the show.
Since development is only starting on the Mass Effect series, don’t anticipate seeing it for a while.
