BioWare reveals Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut will be available to download on June 26

It’s the moment we’ve all been waiting for, BioWare has announced that the Mass Effect 3 “Extended Cut” will be available to download for the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360 on June 26. The free download is roughly 1.9 GB in size and, according to BioWare, it has been stuffed to the gills with new ending scenes that will expand on the fates of characters you’ve gotten to know across the three Mass Effect games. The developer is even encouraging players to play through the game again, just to see how their choices have been expanded upon in the ending with the Extended Cut.

That might be pushing it, but Executive Producer Casey Hudson and Lead Writer Mac Walters recently sat down with BioWare Community Manager Jessica Merizan to discuss the Extended Cut, and they make a pretty good case for why the Extended Cut will satisfy fans.
