BioWare to Show Mass Effect 2's Level Design at GDC

Details on the anticipated RPG follow-up coming in March.

By Steve Watts, 01/08/2009


For a game that was pitched from the beginning as a trilogy, it's been a while since we've heard anything about the sequel to Mass Effect. Details are coming, though, as ShackNews reports that BioWare will be talking about the game at the Game Developers Conference later this spring. The event, which will be held March 23-27 in the San Fransisco Moscone Center, will contain a panel called "The Iterative Level Design Process of BioWare's Mass Effect 2." The annual GDC is generally more for developers to learn from each other than for big media revelations, but at the very least BioWare will be making some mention of Mass Effect 2's creation process, which should bring some new details about the sequel. Though the developer was considering additional DLC, nothing has come with their apparent focus on the next game in the series. They've promised better sidequests, and we can hope that the PC-version's tactical HUD makes the trip to the sequel, but other than that information is sparse. We'll let you know what comes out of GDC in March.

AWESOME!!!
