14 DAY TRIAL // It seems that BioWare is still not done with downloadable content for Mass Effect 3’s multiplayer mode, as a new report has surfaced on the web, saying that the next pack is called Mass Effect 3: Earth, and adds quite a lot of new things, including six new Human classes.
Mass Effect 3 came out in March and, since then, BioWare has kept on releasing plenty of new content for its multiplayer mode.
First, we saw the Resurgence pack, which added new characters, including Geth and Batarian units, and then the Rebellion DLC brought forth Vorcha, ex-Cerberus, or Quarian Male ones.
Now, a new add-on is apparently coming soon, with a Reddit user posting a short description of the new DLC, which is called Mass Effect 3: Earth.
“The fighting is fiercest when it's your home at stake! Mass Effect 3: Earth adds mods, gear, and new maps for Rio, Vancouver, and London. It features 3 new weapons: Piranha assault shotgun, Acolyte pistol, and Typhoon light machine gun. Six new human N7 classes are also available: Destroyer, Paladin, Demolisher, Slayer, Shadow, and Fury!”
This is the same tipster who posted the first description of the Rebellion DLC, so the arrival of an Earth add-on is possible.
He also offered some insight into the upcoming single-player pack, Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut, saying that it will include “additional scenes and an extended epilogue reveal the impact of Shepard's choices on the future of the galaxy.”
As expected, a representative of Electronic Arts, the publisher of Mass Effect 3, has declined to comment on the report.
Even so, it’s probably best to get ready for a new multiplayer expansion in the near future. Until then, expect a formal announcement from BioWare in the following weeks.
