    Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut DLC to Change the Game's Ending this Summer

    The good news is that BioWare heard the very, very, very loud outpouring of hate and vitriol that was slung at it for the half-assed, completely out of left field ending to Mass Effect 3. It is with that knowledge that they have just announced Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut, a bit of free DLC that will add in additional cinematic scenes to the end of the game this Summer.

    “We are all incredibly proud of Mass Effect 3 and the work done by Casey Hudson and team,” said Dr. Ray Muzyka, Co-Founder of BioWare and General Manager of EA’s BioWare Label. “Since launch, we have had time to listen to the feedback from our most passionate fans and we are responding. With the Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut we think we have struck a good balance in delivering the answers players are looking for while maintaining the team’s artistic vision for the end of this story arc in the Mass Effect universe.”

    Casey Hudson, Executive Producer of the Mass Effect series added, “We have reprioritized our post-launch development efforts to provide the fans who want more closure with even more context and clarity to the ending of the game, in a way that will feel more personalized for each player.”


    The press release continues on to talk about how the game received over 75 perfect scores. I bet those people didn't finish the game before their reviews went out.

    Oh, there is just one more thing here: The bad news is that this free DLC offer will only be available until April 12, 2014. Why this date? Why expire at all? I have no idea. But that's what I'm reading here in all capital letters. The free DLC offer expires on April 12, 2014 and you must have a valid Origin, Xbox Live, or PlayStation Network account in order to download it once it's released later this year.
