At the end of this week, Commander Shephard will once more take on the might of an alien force to save Earth for the human race. We have the run-down of everything you need to get excited for BioWare's latest addition to the sci-fi RPG franchise to end them all.
Synopsis
Not everyone will survive. In Mass Effect 3, an ancient alien race known only as Reapers, has launched an all-out invasion of the galaxy, leaving nothing but a trail of destruction in their wake. Earth has been taken, the galaxy is on the verge of total annihilation, and you are the only one who can stop them. The price of failure is extinction. You, as Commander Shepard, must lead the counter assault to take it back. Only you can determine how events will play out, which planets you will save from annihilation and which alliances you will form or abandon as you rally the forces of the galaxy to eliminate the Reaper threat once and for all.
