"Mass Effect 5" director hints that classic feature "moral system" may return

Jan 06 2025

Michael Gamble, the director of "Mass Effect 5", recently revealed an eye-catching news, suggesting that the morality system in the "Mass Effect" trilogy, which is beloved by players, may return in the next work.

Recently, an attentive fan discovered a subtle clue in a concept map released by Gamble in 2024, which seems to indicate that the role model and rebellion system in the game will return again. This picture depicts a character suspected to be in "Mass Effect 5". The light and shadow effects on his body are quite similar to the style of the Paragon logo in the original trilogy.

In this regard, X user @kalaelizabeth asserted: "The Rebel/Paragon system will definitely return to "Mass Effect 5." Faced with this speculation, Michael Gamble responded: "I'm talking about three movies Qu. But you still have to wait patiently..."

In an exchange with another netizen, Gamble further stated: "About the rebel/model system - it is true that there are more players playing role models. But without rebellion, all this is lost. Meaning. In my opinion, the ability to choose is far more important than the number of players choosing a certain option." In the original trilogy, the Paragon and Rebellion systems formed the moral cornerstone of the game. The moral choices players make in the game will directly affect their Paragon or Rebel level advancement.

This system provides players with a richer choice space. For example, players with a rebellious style can respond to a journalist's questions in a unique way by kicking the window during a conversation with her.

Series Director and Executive Producer Mike Gamble said last year that as long as he is at the helm, the new Mass Effect game will "follow the mature style of the original trilogy" (avoiding the cartoonish trend of "Dragon Age") and bring "stunningly realistic visuals" Effect".

It is reported that the next "Mass Effect" game is expected to be released in 2029 or later.
