EA is closing BioWare and cancelling the next Mass Effect

Electronic Arts is closing the historic studio BioWare, resulting in the cancellation of the next Mass Effect game. This decision follows over three decades of the developer creating iconic RPGs. The closure occurs only months after a group of investment firms completed a $55 billion buyout of corporate owner EA. Consequently, the Mass Effect title currently in development is no more, marking a significant shift for the company following the massive acquisition by the investment group.
