Note: This is information that BioWare has provided at the time of each event. Everything with pre-launch development has the potential to change. The thread will be updated accordingly. Yes, I know there is a "Known Features" thread. However, most of its information is antiquated and doesn't appear to be regularly updated. Instead of using google docs providing a hundred links to quotes, I'm just providing videos and information BioWare has felt important enough to talk about directly.

Thank you for creating this topic. I hope you update it when we get more information.

That's the plan. Hopefully this can be a useful resource so everybody is on the same page with what we know about the next Mass Effect.

You know, there is a thread for this already:

Fantastic. Hopefully the compilation will be beneficial to all. The other thread doesn't appear to be regularly updated and doesn't seem to provide any of the newer information.

Glad you like it. The plan is to keep the thread user-friendly, accessible, and have information straight from video footage. There is the "Known Features" thread if you want to find more obscure facts from twitter feeds, random game journalist websites, etc.

Actually in The Next Mass Effect - Known Features Thread is everything that is known to this point. No need for a new thread.

I have read through it. The thread is cumbersome, not user-friendly, and is littered with google documents. It doesn't even address what the developers talked about in context with those images from N7 Day. It's merely the poster's own thoughts, which are less than enlightening. My approach is far more accessible and actually gives real video footage of what BioWare is saying about MENext. If you prefer the other thread, you are more than welcome to follow it.

Good thread, is there any Twitter stuff you can address (ARKON logo, 'never seen salarians look so good' etc.), or are you only posting absolute certainties? Bioware have definitely confirmed the presence of Salarians and Krogan in the next game.

Nah, let's leave that for the Twitter Thread. Speculations! Lots of it

I'm leaving Twitter speculation to the Twitter thread and any other obscure information to the Known Features thread. This one is specifically for video footage and actual confirmed news straight from BioWare. I want to keep it nice, simple, and accessible.

It's likely all of the known species will return, as BioWare has said it's very possible we will see some old friends from the original trilogy. If BioWare talks more about it in a video, I'll likely update the OP with that information. Otherwise, there are some aspects of ME that we should expect will return in the next game (species, familiar locations, Systems Alliance and Council Government, etc.). This thread is really more built to focus on the new features and systems in the next Mass Effect.
