The release of Mass Effect 3 is nearly here, and on March 6th all of us will have a chance to take Earth back from the clutches of the invading Reaper forces. This new trailer shows planet Earth in chaos as the Reapers descend from the sky and destroy everything in their path. Though it’s only a cinematic trailer, it sure as hell looks good. Watching this gave me a serious Battlestar Galactica vibe, and that’s all the more relevant given the recent revelation of Vancouver being included as a major area in the game. As any of you BSG fans out there likely know, much of that show was filmed in Vancouver, Canada.
The trailer begins with a child playing and ends with some serious carnage set to more amazing music by none other than the legendary Clint Mansell. Clint has created some unbelievable soundtracks in his time, with my favorite being that from the film Moon. Jack Wall composed the soundtracks for the first two Mass Effect games, and though the music was excellent (I still listen daily), I’m looking forward to seeing a new take on the game’s musical score.
Take Earth Back Cinematic Trailer
As you can see in the trailer, neither the human race nor the Reapers are pulling any punches. I’ll be interested to see if the story is one of mass scale war, or of subtle guerilla warfare and rebellion. Either arc could be exceptionally interesting, and if the previous two games are any indication, I think the series is in good hands.
This time around, I really need to do a better job on my character’s face. In Mass Effect 2, I managed to butcher it in a way that would disgust a person with the heartiest of stomachs. Imagine a snake that had sex with a member of the Insane Clown Posse, and you wouldn’t be far off.
Mass Effect 3 arrives on March 6th for PC, Xbox 360, and PS3.
