Next Mass Effect Could Feature the Paragon and Renegade Systems

Next Mass Effect

With BioWare focusing on the next Mass Effect after releasing Dragon Age: The Veilguard, new details have slowly but surely made their way out. Project director Michael Gamble confirmed it will feature a photo-realistic art style and maintain the original trilogy’s “mature tone.” However, his recent tweet may have convinced fans that the Paragon and Renegade systems are returning.

Gamble recently said, “Regarding Renegade and Paragon: Yes, it’s true that more people played Paragon. But, it would have been meaningless if Renegade had not existed. The ability to choose is stronger than the number of people playing any option, in my opinion.” On its own, this seems innocuous.

However, one user, Kala Elizabeth, reposted the official art of the potential new protagonist and pointed out how the Paragon symbol is somewhat discernible. While Gamble replied that he was “talking about the trilogy” in his original tweet, he also added, “You’ll just have to wait and see…”

Regardless of whether the next Mass Effect features the same Paragon and Renegade systems of yore, there’s no denying the possibility of alignment-based choices. Dragon Age: The Veilguard received significant backlash for not allowing players any evil decisions, much less to converse rudely with companions. As always, however, time will tell.

The next Mass Effect lacks a release date, though it’s rumored to launch in 2029. Head here for more details.
