After The BioWare Shutdown, Mass Effect Spiritual Successor Exodus Gets A New Look
In the wake of the news that EA has closed down BioWare and ended development on Mass Effect 5 , Archetype Entertainment—co-founded by former BioWare devs Chad Robertson, James Ohlen, and Drew Karpyshyn—has given players a brand-new look at its upcoming title, a very Mass-Effecty sci-fi RPG called Exodus .
