Trailer PC Xbox 360

EA is currently doing their conference, and this trailer of Mass Effect 2 was just released. The video presents a new character, Grunt, a new violent Krogan fighter.

EA press release:


Cologne, Germany (August 18th, 2009) – Leading video game developer BioWare™, a division of Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) today revealed new plot points in the epic sci-fi fantasy Mass Effect 2™. Once again stepping into the role of the heroic Commander Shepard, gamers will command their crew on a suicide mission in space. Players will strategically select each member of their squad, all of whom have a direct impact on the direction of the story and the squad’s chances for survival. Players will select from a motley cast of characters including the newly revealed ‘Grunt’ – a blood-hungry Krogan.

Once players have assembled their squad from amongst the galaxy’s most powerful mystics, geniuses, and convicts, they must lead them on a suicide mission to discover why humans are vanishing from the galaxy. The success of the mission hinges on the squad recruited and their loyalty to the mission. Shepard’s future depends on it.

“The Mass Effect trilogy is an epic saga with consequences that will carry through from chapter to chapter” said Dr. Ray Muzyka, GM and CEO BioWare, VP EA. “Building out a diverse and loyal party is one of the features that makes the Mass Effect series unique. “The characters Commander Shepard recruits are not only pivotal to the storyline but essential to the players overall success.”

The new character revealed in the Mass Effect 2 squad is ‘Grunt’. A violent and unpredictable Krogan fighter, Grunt has never faced true defeat. His unsurpassed physical strength makes him a strong asset to Commander Shepard’s team, if he can be tamed, and if he can be trusted.

Grunt is the second party member to be revealed in the Mass Effect 2 universe following ‘Thane’ a deadly assassin who was first introduced in June. More details about the rest of Shepard’s crew will be revealed in the coming months.

Those outside space environments look almost pre-rendered and the cityscape section looks jaw dropping. So much for the poor looking environments people moaned about. Overall this game is up there with the best visually this gen.

Hmm..I hope Wrex still has at least cameo in the game. Wrex was/is such a bad-ass character.

I'm sure they've said your squadies from the first game (assuming you haven't ended their life) will have appearances in this game.

This looks brilliant.

"Once players have assembled their squad from amongst the galaxy’s most powerful mystics, geniuses, and convicts" - i sense some double crossing going on. Wonder if you can still keep your ME1 crew. Wonder how many aliens you'll get to have "relations" with this time.... hopefully Grunt wont be one of them, he looks like he'd be a selfish lover.
