If you've had the visual pleasure of playing a BioWare game in the past few years, you can't deny just how gorgeous the studio's character models, variety of materials and textures, and lush environments are expect more of the same in MELE. The trilogy's enhanced visuals includes revamped character and asset models, lighting, shaders, visual effects, and some tens of thousands of up-ressed textures, to name a few.

(Oh, and guess what? The original Mass Effect now comes with controller support on PC! Attention was paid to inputs and keybinds, plus a modernized combat HUD to bring it more in line with Mass Effect 2 & 3.) This spit and polish remaster was done with 4K and HDR displays in mind, tailored for 60FPS play on consoles, and high refresh rate, ultra-wide 21:9 display support on PC. But don't expect a remake this is a remaster, meaning the bulk of the games you know and love are still intact, just with a glamorous glow-up that will bring them into the modern era.

While the BioWare team focused mainly on bringing the Mass Effect trilogy up to contemporary levels of the current generations of consoles (PS4, Xbox One) and PC components, they also spared an eye towards next-gen systems where they could. And it's mainly the visuals that this event, and the remaster itself, focuses on, though there are certainly quality-of-life changes and a whole lotta content for gamers everywhere to enjoy. We were able to get a glimpse of the gorgeous updates the iconic trilogy has undergone over the last couple of years as the team worked on all three games. Recently, I had a chance to join game journalists from all over the world in a behind-the-scenes chat with BioWare's Mac Walters (Project Director), Crystal McCord (Producer), and Kevin Meek (Environment Director) lead producer Melanie Faulkner was unable to join the team due to maternity leave, but her contributions were included in the discussion.

I'm here today to tease a little bit of just that ahead of the new edition's May release. Soon, Mass Effect fans all around the world will get a chance to see what the hard-working teams at BioWare and EA have put into the remastered trilogy, Mass Effect Legendary Edition.
