Mass Effect 5is in good hands, as the director of the upcoming sequel confirms how many people in the leadership team worked on the original trilogy.

In response to this, another Twitter user asked how they knew this, to which Gamble stepped in to straighten things out. In his reply, Gamble revealed the executive producer (himself), art director, creative director, and game director are all trilogy veterans. The developer’s reply was to the point and didn’t name any names, but since he’s the one leading Mass Effect 5, we can most definitely take his word for it.

Speaking of Michael Gamble, theMass Effect 5 director recently gave props to Exodus, the upcoming sci-fi game from other former BioWare developers. Not only did Gamble share the game’s latest trailer from Archetype Entertainment and reply: “Science fiction is amazing,” but he also responded to a fan adding: “The more - the better,” in terms of new sci-fi RPGs.

After studying Film Studies and Creative Writing at university, I was lucky enough to land a job as an intern at Player Two PR where I helped to release a number of indie titles. I then got even luckier when I became a Trainee News Writer at GamesRadar+ before being promoted to a fully-fledged News Writer after a year and a half of training.  My expertise lies in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, cozy indies, and The Last of Us, but especially in the Kingdom Hearts series. I’m also known to write about the odd Korean drama for the Entertainment team every now and then.
