Development On Next ‘Mass Effect 3’ DLC Is ‘All Hands On Deck’


Since launching over half a year ago, Mass Effect 3 has seen a healthy number of DLC packs, most of which were of the mutliplayer variety. So far only two singleplayer DLCs have been released–not counting From Ashes–but there’s still more on the way.

BioWare hasn’t talked about what we can expect out of Mass Effect 3‘s third singleplayer DLC, but they are starting to drop a few teases. In a post on the developer’s forums, level designer Jos Hendriks said that development on the DLC is “all hands on deck.”

“It’s all hands on deck for this one,” Hendriks wrote. “Pretty much every ME3 DLC writer here in Edmonton is involved. (which would include both Patrick Weekes AND John Dombrow).”

Composer Sam Hulick, not content with letting Hendriks have all of the fun teasing fans about the next Mass Effect 3 DLC, suggested in a post on Twitter that at least one of the songs he’s working on might induce a tear or two.

“Tossing in piano and muted strings for this one particular piece. High potential for tears. #ME3DLC,” Hulick tweeted (via Joystiq).

Other recent tweets have confirmed that Joker (Seth Green) and Kaidan (Raphael Sbarge) have new lines in the as-yet unnamed DLC, although the level of their involvement is anyone’s guess at this point.

Some time back, fans did some digging in the Mass Effect 3 client and found information suggesting that the next DLC, or some future DLC, will somehow involve the Citadel.

Have you already moved on from Mass Effect 3, or are you willing to give it another go when the next DLC launches?
