BioWare is celebrating today's Mass Effect holiday--N7 Day--by teasing the next entry in the series. The developer is releasing frustratingly brief and mysterious sequences from some kind of teaser, but it's hard to make heads or tails of anything just yet. Fans might be excited for N7 Day and to learn more about the next Mass Effect, but laid-off BioWare testers are picketing the developer to raise awareness for their situation and to gather support for their unionization effort.
These teasers, titled Epsilon and Defiance, show a person bearing N7 colors walking through a hallway going… somewhere. Who are they? Where are they going? We don't know. But hopefully the teasers amount to something meaningful before the end of the day. The teaser videos are appearing throughout the day, and there have been two so far--check them out below.
Another teaser, Post-Nebula, will be released at 1 PM PT / 4 PM ET today.
A celebratory N7 Day blog post from BioWare appears to include some kind of coded messaged hidden within binary code of 0s and 1s. But the message has not been deciphered as of yet.
The next Mass Effect game remains in pre-production, BioWare confirmed in an email, so no one should expect it to be released soon. Last year for N7 Day, BioWare released a cryptic piece of concept art. A year before that, another mysterious art piece suggested the Geth will return.
Also for N7 Day, BioWare announced a pretty great-looking Commander Shepard statue. In addition to the new Mass Effect, BioWare is developing Dragon Age Dreadwolf.
