Electronic Arts offers Mass Effect 2 for free. We tell you how to play the RPG hit for free.
In just over two weeks, Mass Effect: Andromeda will be released. Yes, exactly, the new RPG-shooter hybrid from BioWare that all the nerdy RPG fans are currently talking about. Since it’s easy to get caught up in such hype and Mass Effect is not without reason considered one of the best game series of recent years, the temptation to dive into the universe is great.
Is playing the first 3 “Mass Effect” games necessary?
Although Mass Effect: Andromeda is essentially independent of the trilogy, the game frequently references Shepard (the hero of the trilogy) and the events that took place in the earlier parts. While it is not necessary to have played the first parts for Andromeda, those who want to enjoy the full story and understand all the references should unpack the original trilogy in the coming weeks.
Currently, there is a “On the House” promotion at Origin, EA’s game database, where EA is giving away full versions of older games to users. Right now, the full version of Mass Effect 2 is waiting to be downloaded. Here you can download Mass Effect 2 at Origin (Link to the Origin page)
Anyone who wants to secure the game should visit the aforementioned website as soon as possible and add Mass Effect 2 to their Origin account – this obviously requires an Origin account. Once the game is registered in your library, it will remain there even if the “On the House” promotion for Mass Effect ends.
Last Friday, we asked you who among you will be playing Mass Effect: Andromeda.
As EA never announces in advance when a “On the House” promotion ends, anyone interested should hurry to grab at least part of the trilogy for free. This is also a good incentive to convert “innocent” friends to devoted Mass Effect fans.
Mass Effect: Andromeda will be released on March 23, 2017, in Europe for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
