After a long absence, the beloved sci-fi RPG, Mass Effect, was confirmed to be continuing with a Mass Effect 4. While we have no idea when that will be or what it will look like, we did get a chance to revisit the franchise once again earlier in the year with Legendary Edition. The collection remastered the original trilogy and seems to have largely been well-received. It also seems to have done quite well for EA.
As detailed by analyst Daniel Ahmad on Twitter, in the latest conference call from the publisher, they specified that Legendary Edition had performed well above their internal expectations. There’s not a lot of details there, so how many units that is or what those expectations were, but they clearly are happy with the performance. Considering how long the series was gone, and how much fond memories swirl around it and its choice-based storytelling, it should be no surprise.
Mass Effect: Legendary Edition is available now on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.
