Mass Effect 3 release date announced

6 June 2011

Speaking in the opening minutes of EA’s E3 2011 press conference, Mass Effect 3 executive producer Casey Hudson said, refering to the game, that “The war for humanity begins March 6, 2012.”

This announcement led into a demonstration of the game itself.

“We’re giving our fans the opportunity to see how their choices have led up to the game’s final chapter” said Hudson.  

In an earlier gameplay video for Mass Effect 3 during Microsoft’s press conference, the game was demoed being played with the Xbox 360 Kinect. While there is no sign of any motion control, Mass Effect 3 will make use of Kinect’s voice functionality, in particular, to control the flow of the player’s interactions with NPCs via voice activated conversation choices.
