Former BioWare developers have shared insights into the canceled Mass Effect 5, describing it as a potentially "special" RPG that aimed to elevate player autonomy and choice. The team reportedly looked to Larian Studios' Baldur's Gate 3 and CD Projekt Red's Cyberpunk 2077 for inspiration. Despite the promising development, the project was ultimately scrapped, leading to disappointment among those involved and the wider gaming community.
