The canceled Mass Effect game reportedly had some very interesting ideas. The game was set more than 600 years after the original trilogy and would have focused on a galactic Cold War between three major factions, not another Reaper invasion. You would play as an N7 agent, described as a “cross between John Wick and James Bond.” The gameplay included stealth, hacking, gadgets, melee takedowns and experimental technology. Missions would be more focused and handcrafted instead of taking place in one huge open world, but players would have a lot of freedom in how they completed each mission, similar to Hitman. The game also had deeper romance options, squadmates who could argue with each other, and a much older and more powerful Liara. According to Dantics, the game was much further into development than BioWare made it sound, and could have been something special.
