Key information
Battlefield Studios has reportedly scrapped plans for a Mass Effect crossover in Battlefield 6. This decision follows Electronic Arts' move to shutter BioWare and cancel the next entry in the sci-fi franchise.
Players previously identified Mass Effect-themed weapon charms and patches within the game files. These items were widely expected to launch around November 7 to coincide with the N7 Day holiday.
According to reports, these cosmetics were removed from the in-game store before they became generally available. Observers suggest that releasing content for a discontinued series would have likely triggered significant negative feedback for the publisher.
While the Mass Effect collaboration appears cancelled, Battlefield 6 is currently running a crossover event featuring Dead Space. Meanwhile, the closure of BioWare follows EA being taken private by an investor consortium led by Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, leading to concerns regarding future layoffs due to the resulting debt.
