Instead of being three games with time skips, your choices in one game directly carried over to the next game and had direct impacts on the story. Missions, Relationships, and Battles all play a role in determining how your saga will turn out.

The trilogy forms more of an Epic, versus a usual story.

So there ya go! A confirmation on the release date. Mass Effect is a great series loved by lots of people, and for good reason. If you never played them or want to return, this is a great opportunity to experience an acclaimed series all over again in stunning 4k.
