3 years later, the original Mass Effect 5 reveal teaser could still be holding secrets to the series' future
Since its 2020 reveal at the Game Awards, the still untitled Mass Effect 5 has been shrouded in mystery. The cryptic reveal teaser, showing a familiar character exploring a frozen wasteland, ended with the words, "Mass Effect will continue."
It's been almost three years since its initial reveal, and following N7 Day this week, we got another mystery teaser introducing a mysterious new character sporting a jacket with the familiar N7 logo on it. Fans immediately went on to speculate about the new video. However, Michael Gamble, the new Mass Effect's current director, told fans that a lot of work went into the original teaser from 2020 and suggested that not all of it had been decoded quite yet.

This cryptic message from Gamble was posted on N7 Day, which is BioWare's fan celebration for all things Mass Effect. Gamble's tease came in response to another user who was trying to decipher the muffled voices in the initial teaser. Even though the teaser was posted years ago and has been thoroughly combed over, it seems it still holds mysteries as to the fate of the storied franchise.
What sent fans over into full analysis mode is another cryptic message from Gamble on social media, which said: "Not everything is as it seems." This message came right after BioWare published a dev blog celebrating N7 day, which featured an extremely cryptic coded message at the end that included references to "Epsilon" (which means five in ancient Greek), and references to Andromeda as well.
