Electronic Arts is announcing a significant reorganization at BioWare Studios as it pivots the work entirely toward the development of the next Mass Effect game. EA appears to have reassigned some BioWare employees to new teams, as reported by IGN, but it’s ensuring that Mass Effect 5 remains the primary focus of its studio.

The move comes on the heels of BioWare’s recent attempts to revitalize its big-name franchises, especially after the lukewarm reception to Anthem and the warm but controversial reception to Mass Effect: Andromeda. With Dragon Age: Dreadwolf still in development, the decision from EA signals a turning point for BioWare’s strategy for the long term, which focuses solely to ensure Mass Effect 5 gloves have the very good quality experience the fans are expecting

Little is known just yet about Mass Effect 5, but the development team has teased a return to the series’ core mechanics, such as strong narrative elements and deep RPG gameplay systems. Fans remain cautiously optimistic and looking forward to further announcements, wishing that the game can not only recapture the original trilogy magic but also bring some new gameplay aspects.
