MORE INFO:
Mass Effect Legendary Edition was developed by BioWare and published by Electronic Arts.[13] BioWare had previously discussed developing a remaster of the Mass Effect trilogy in 2014,[14] but did not begin work on the project until 2019.[15] Multiple support studios were contracted to assist with development, including Abstraction Games and Blind Squirrel Games.[4][16] The former aided with the adaptation of each game for newer consoles, and helped with optimizations and improvements, mostly with regard to graphics.[4] The overall project was directed by Mac Walters, who previously served as lead writer for Mass Effect 2 and Mass Effect 3.[17]
Early in the development process, BioWare consulted with Epic Games to determine the feasibility of porting the games from their original engine, Unreal Engine 3, to Unreal Engine 4. BioWare eventually determined that the amount of work required to do so was significant, and would involve remaking large aspects of the games, such as redoing all cinematic scenes. They were also concerned that an overhaul of that magnitude would fundamentally change and take away from the original trilogy experience.[17] Based on these findings, BioWare decided to keep the games on their original engine, and also to approach the project as a remaster as opposed to a remake.[18] Due to its complicated nature and potential impact on the project's timeline, BioWare also decided that the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer mode would not be included.[19] The team intended to include all single-player DLC in the package, but was unable to include the Pinnacle Station pack from Mass Effect because its source code was corrupted, which Walters described as "heartbreaking".[20]
As part of the remastering process, BioWare increased resolutions for all textures throughout the trilogy, which was accomplished by utilizing an artificial intelligence upscaling program and other custom tools.[21] Once those initial visual upgrades were complete, the art department began manual work on assets, character models, and environments.[22] After reviewing each game for potential changes, the team concluded that certain camera angles of female characters were either gratuitous or in need of improvement, so they moved ahead with alterations to some of the original shots.[23] By the spring of 2020, Legendary Edition entered a "baseline" state where the games were fully playable and BioWare's first round of improvements had been implemented. However, the team felt that the original Mass Effect was still lagging behind the other games in terms of visuals, so they brought in the game's original art director, Derek Watts, to add new details and effects. The original game also received a significant amount of gameplay updates, which was done in order to modernize the experience and to remove inconsistencies with its sequels.[15] These updates included adjustments to boss encounters that were originally deemed "painful" for players, which required the involvement of one of the game's original level designers.[10] The compilation was released to manufacturing on April 9, 2021.[24]
