BioWare has announced that the demo for Mass Effect 3 will be available beginning February 14, 2012. The demo will allow players to experience the all-out galactic war against an ancient alien race known as the Reapers from multiple fronts, including the opening attack on Earth that kicks off the single-player campaign. Players will go deeper into the campaign and also get a taste of the franchise’s new co-operative multiplayer mode as they preview the story, action and customization options that lie ahead when Mass Effect 3 launches on March 6, 2012.
“We are excited to be able to give gamers an expansive demo that will put them right on the front lines of this all-out galactic war,” said Casey Hudson, Executive Producer of the Mass Effect series. “The entire scale of the game is bigger than anything we’ve ever done. With its intense action, deep customization and raw emotional power, Mass Effect 3 will deliver a spectacular action RPG experience to fans of the series and newcomers alike.”
The Mass Effect 3 demo will be available for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.
Mass Effect 3 will also be one of the first pre-launch demos to support full voice recognition functionality on Kinect for Xbox 360 (see
