iOS Receiving Mass Effect: Infiltrator

EA has just announced release of a Mass Effect IP for the iOS.  The game sends players on a rescue mission to release Cerberus bound captives from the shady organization’s clutches.  This ties into a reward system that will actually affect players’ games in the console release of Mass Effect 3.  EA states, “Every completed rescue and intelligence discovery in Infiltrator will increase a player’s Galactic Readiness rating directly through the ‘Galaxy at War’ system in Mass Effect 3.”  The Galaxy at War system has to do with the game’s multiplayer system.

There was no word if players will take control of Commander Shepherd, but the game will include “authentic weapons and powers from the Mass Effect series.”  There’s no doubt that the Mass Effect experience is like no other in gaming.  It follows a progression that is realistic, basing every consequence upon actions made by players in the game.  The trilogy has been a remarkable ride that sets a new standard for gaming.  The game is set for release in Q1 of 2012.
