BioWare's Dr Greg Zeschuk teases a Mass Effect MMO

With the SWTOR experience a Mass Effect MMO should be easy

BioWare co-founder Dr Greg Zeschuk has indicated that they would look at making a Mass Effect MMO once Star Wars: The Old Republic and Mass Effect 3 have been released.

Zeschuk said that making an MMO from the Mass Effect series would easy to do especially on the back of all the lessons they have learned and continue to learn developing The Old Republic.

He explained on the Mass Effect MMO: "You never know,. I think once The Old Republic is done, we'll take a fresh look at the market. And we'll have learned a lot. While making it, you learn an enormous amount. It's one of the nice things about having these properties in our back pocket... If we want to use something we own as a source for a game, it's easy to do. So yeah, you never know. We've got this giant product to launch, but once that's done we'll consider next steps."

This isn't the first time a Mass Effect MMO has been spoken of. Mass Effect executive producer Casey Hudson said recently: "A lot of people say that they want to see an MMO, I think that kind of makes sense for this universe. Part of what youre trying to do is save the universe so you can live in it. Thats part of the promise, I think, for any great IP. It has to be a world worth saving."

Star Wars: The Old Republic will be released on PC on December the 20th in the US and December the 22nd in Europe.
