May Cover Revealed on GameInformer.com highlights their cover story on Mass Effect 3, BioWare's upcoming shooter/RPG sequel. There's a concise write-up about the preview on NeoGAF (thanks Eurogamer), offering some spoilerish details, with word on characters that will return, an upgraded RPG system, weapons mods, and alternative endings. They also confirm that, like its predecessors, Mass Effect 3 will offer no multiplayer support. On a related note, IGN has word on plans for an anime movie based on Mass Effect: "Over the last few years, we have revealed different pieces of the Mass Effect world through different media. Extending the story through an anime medium is another amazing opportunity for us," said Casey Hudson, Executive Producer for the Mass Effect series. "Partnering with FUNimation ensures that we will bring this rich universe to life with the utmost quality and the same attention to detail that the Mass Effect games are known for."
