This year, BioWare and EA continued the N7 tradition through the creation of a new blog post where they announced new items for their BioWare Gear Store as well as a partnership with Humble Bundle and Dark Horse. Curiously, throughout the post, many ones and zeros were sprinkled inside several words, and when all of them were put inside a binary translator, it resulted in the word “Epsilon.” When “Epsilon” is added at the end of EA’s website URL, a cryptic Mass Effect 4 teaser can be found. In the short video, pounding footsteps can be heard as an ominous, dark figure is seen walking through what looks to be a warehouse.
This isn’t the only time BioWare revealed a teaser about its next Mass Effect game on N7 Day. In 2022, a 25-second-long clip was posted on Twitter, featuring what looked to be the reconstruction of a Mass Relay. Mass Relays were the crowning achievement of Prothean engineering as they were used for almost instantaneous mass transit for spaceships across the galaxy. However, when Commander Shepard triggered the Crucible at the end of Mass Effect 3, the Mass Relays sustained severe damage, rendering them useless.
Many gamers are eagerly anticipating the release of Mass Effect 4 and are hoping to reunite with some of the beloved characters from the original trilogy. Some fans are even speculating on the possibility of Commander Shepard's return from the dead. Until the game’s actual release, BioWare is doing a great job of steadily building anticipation among fans by gradually releasing peculiar teasers about the next Mass Effect game.
