Revisit Commander Shepard or embark on your first Mass Effect™ journey with the Legendary Edition of the Mass Effect Trilogy.

And these are your favorite games on the Citadel.

Or you’re new to Mass Effect and you didn’t get that reference.

Either way, the Mass Effect Legendary Edition might be just what you need for some intergalactic adventure, romance, and intrigue.

The Legendary Edition launches on May 14, 2021 and is available to pre-order on PC (through Origin and Steam), PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. It’s compatible with PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.

Here’s what the Legendary Edition includes:

  • The full single-player experience for all three Mass Effect Trilogy games, including all DLC plus promo weapons, armors, and packs.
  • Remastered 4K graphics with enhanced visuals, textures, and models.
  • A single unified launcher, controller support on PC, enhanced performance and gameplay, updated user interfaces, and more. 
  • For the original Mass Effect game, we’ve also tightened up the camera, squad controls, and aiming.
  • Your choices follow you from game to game seamlessly—as long as you play through the trilogy in order.

Since the Legendary Edition contains all three games plus downloadable content, we recommend that you predownload it if possible. Preload is available from May 12, 2021 (times may vary depending on your platform and location).

What languages are supported in the Legendary Edition?

As a remaster, it was important for us to stay true to the original games when bringing them to modern consoles. Languages in all three games in the Mass Effect Legendary Edition are restored as they were for the original games.

Here’s a breakdown of the additional languages available, game by game:
