It also looks a lot like Illium, the asari corporate colony where we're reintroduced to Liara in Mass Effect 2. Some think they have connections with the asari as the architecture and lighting look quite similar to the asari homeworld, Thessia, which you may recall from our time with Mass Effect 3. In one image, a turian, salarian, and krogan are all depicted wearing breathing masks".įans are split on what these images depict, however. It also talked about Mass Effect's trading and planetary explorations, as well as a combat system that was described as featuring "dazzling combat choreography and intense ranged combat".ĭid you catch the new piece of concept art that seems to be teasing one of the locations we'll be visiting when Mass Effect 5?Īs Dustin described so wonderfully at the time, both images depict "towering cityscapes bathed in sunset shades of yellow, orange, and red.

These issues are far from game breaking, and shouldn’t deter those wishing to try out Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords on Nintendo Switch.Interestingly, the pitch document quite accurately foresaw that it would become a "mainstream phenomenon" and a "must-have game for the Xbox 2" - the Xbox 360, in other words.
