Mass Effect On PS3? BioWare Says No

We were inundated with tips this week about supposed “proof” that code found within Mass Effect 2 on PC “confirmed” the presence of a PS3 version of the game. It does not.

Seeking to clarify the situation, a statement on BioWare’s forums reads:

The Unreal Engine is cross platform, hence the PS3 code. This was brought up back in Mass Effect 1 days as well.

Mass Effect is for the PC and Xbox 360.

LOCKDOWN!

Lockdown indeed. If you check the code for other Unreal Engine games – like Gears of War – you’ll find the same thing.

Nothing to see here, people.

    Maybe – If it did happen it would would be after the trilogy has been completed on the 360/PC version and most likely released as a collection.
