From Bioware "Not remake or reimagine, but modernize the experience so players can experience it in it's best possible form. 4K Ultra HD resolution, faster framerates and visual enhancements"
Apparently apart from the complete trilogy, all DLC and promo weapons and gear will be included. (No ME3 multiplayer).

It is unknown how much ME1 will be dragged into the 21st century regarding gameplay revamps, so stay tuned.

Also making news on the Mass Effect front, they have said they are in early work with the dev team responsible for ME, in the creation of the next game in the ME series..I really hope it doesn't suck like Andromeda.

I am irrepressibly pleased by this announcement. Will need to be a bit more fluid than the originals to meet today's more exacting standards but the core game and story is something I've not tired of and will happily play through again.

I recently did two play through's only two months back of ME2 and ME3, would be nice if the whole series had the combat style of ME3, I loved the series, the Reapers were terrifying. Some of the DLC was brilliant, Leviathan was glorious with a Lovecraftian vibe.

I wonder if they'll redo the ending of 3, again

Hopefully it seemed like a cop-out at the time. There's only one ending...wipe them out!

I played through all the Mass Effect games earlier this year.

ME1 is frankly a mess to play in its current state- it's very aged, the gunplay is.....tolerable is the best I can say. It was definitely trying to be an RPG first and any shooter mechanics second.

I really hope that they take the fast and fluid gameplay from 2/3, and harmonize it across all the games. I much preferred the weight system of ME3 to the "lol you can't use this gun because you're a biotic, you fucking idiot" of ME1 where you were hilariously inaccurate with any non-proficient weapon.

I'll be keeping a close eye on this for sure.

I never played any of the mass effect games, something I should pickup when they release?

On the whole, they were pretty fun, in fact ME3 is currently installed on my PC.

Im not sure how "dated" the older games will feel, but the story line for MA is one of my favorites ongoing space operas.

If you have the time, I feel its worth the playthrough.

Absolutely like Montoya said, and for me it is my personal favorite "ongoing space opera". When playing Mass Effect 2 and 3, parts of the game changes depending on what decisions you made in the previous game/s. No spoilers but the whole story is epic, one person's journey to save the galaxy. From being told it's a myth, to oh fuck what do we do? tell us! Once released next year and updated it will be well worth your time, back when EA told fantastic stories. (Also Mass Effect: Andromeda set in the same universe....but we don't talk about it...the trilogy is where its at).
