Following months of rumors and speculation, EA finally announced\u00a0Mass Effect: Legendary Edition<\/em><\/strong>, a remastered collection of the original\u00a0Mass Effect<\/em> games with enhanced visuals, all of the DLC, and a variety of other improvements.\u00a0Mass Effect: Legendary Edition<\/em><\/a> is set to launch spring 2021 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One, and will be playable on both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X thanks to those consoles’ backward compatibility with PS4 and Xbox One games.<\/p>\n

Mass Effect: Legendary\u00a0Edition<\/em> was announced alongside a brand new\u00a0Mass Effect<\/em> game that is in active development at BioWare by those who worked on the original titles. More information on the new\u00a0Mass Effect<\/em> game<\/a> is likely years away, especially with BioWare currently busy at work on\u00a0Dragon Age 4<\/em>. Regardless, fans will have\u00a0Mass Effect: Legendary Edition<\/em> to fill the gap in the meantime.<\/p>\n

Mass Effect<\/em> isn’t the only dormant franchise that EA should revive, though. There are a number of other older EA games that are all deserving of the remaster treatment, especially if those remasters help usher in new entries for their series.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

The original\u00a0Dead Space<\/em> was essentially\u00a0Resident Evil 4<\/em> in space, taking the basic gameplay of Capcom’s survival-horror classic and applying it to a sci-fi setting with a greatly increased focus on horror.\u00a0Dead Space 2<\/em> dialed everything up to 11, with improved visuals and gameplay mechanics, culminating in the somewhat controversial\u00a0Dead Space 3<\/em>.\u00a0Dead Space 3<\/em> was criticized at the time of its release<\/a> for its use of microtransactions, but its co-op mode was praised by critics at the time, and it did bring a mostly satisfying conclusion to the story that started with the original\u00a0Dead Space<\/em> game.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the\u00a0Dead Space<\/em> franchise<\/a> has been dormant since then, with no sign of a comeback. Considering the visual prowess of modern gaming consoles, though, it would be a shame if the\u00a0Dead Space<\/em> games never get the visual upgrades that they deserve.\u00a0Dead Space<\/em> was already visually-impressive in 2008, just imagine what it could look like on the PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X.<\/p>\n

There were some high-quality\u00a0Dead Space<\/em> spin-off games that could be made part of a potential\u00a0Dead Space<\/em> collection as well to sweeten the pot. For example,\u00a0Dead Space: Extraction<\/em> earned strong reviews when it launched in 2009, and EA has already released an enhanced port of that particular game in the past.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

While\u00a0Mass Effect<\/em> fans wait for news on the new game, they can try\u00a0Mass Effect: Legendary Edition<\/em> and relive Commander Shepard’s classic adventures. However,\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em> fans don’t have something similar to help tide them over while they wait to play the highly-anticipated\u00a0Dragon Age 4<\/em><\/a>. To make up for that, BioWare and EA could release a collection of remastered\u00a0Dragon Age<\/em> titles in the same vein as\u00a0Mass Effect: Legendary Edition<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Dragon Age: Origins<\/em> in particular seems like it is long overdue for the remaster treatment. As some may recall, the\u00a0Dragon Age: Origins<\/em> graphics on consoles were pretty bad when compared to the PC version, but the power of the new consoles gives BioWare and EA the chance to right that wrong. Of course,\u00a0such a collection would also include\u00a0Dragon Age 2<\/em> and\u00a0Inquisition<\/em> as well.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

DICE may be best known for its\u00a0Battlefield<\/em> games<\/a>, but\u00a0it also released\u00a0Mirror’s Edge<\/em> to strong reviews back in 2008.\u00a0Unfortunately,\u00a0Mirror’s Edge<\/em> sales were lower than EA’s expectations, immediately throwing its potential to become a franchise into doubt. Despite\u00a0Mirror’s Edge<\/em>‘s low sales, DICE was still able to move forward with a\u00a0reboot,\u00a0Mirror’s Edge Catalyst<\/em>, though it was not nearly as well-received as the original game. A remaster of the original\u00a0Mirror’s Edge<\/em> seems like it would go a long way in pleasing fans, and maybe it could even get some people who didn’t play the original to see what it’s all about.<\/p>\n

For the longest time,\u00a0Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater<\/em> was virtually unchallenged when it came to skateboarding video games. However, that changed when EA Black Box released the original\u00a0Skate<\/em>, which opted to be more of a skateboarding simulation game than lean into the arcade-style of gameplay found in the\u00a0Tony Hawk<\/em> titles.\u00a0Skate<\/em> was fairly popular at the time of its release, spawning a brand new sports franchise for EA in the process.<\/p>\n

EA capitalized on\u00a0Skate<\/em>‘s popularity with spin-off games as well as two direct sequels,\u00a0Skate 2<\/em> and\u00a0Skate 3<\/em>. Despite all of these games being well-received by critics and fans alike, the\u00a0Skate<\/em> series has been dormant since\u00a0Skate 3<\/em>‘s launch in 2010. Luckily, EA has finally confirmed that\u00a0Skate 4<\/em> is in development<\/a>, though it’s unclear when exactly fans will get the chance to play the new game. While they wait, it would be nice for the original\u00a0Skate<\/em> games to make a comeback on the new consoles, similarly to how Activision revived\u00a0Tony Hawk<\/em> with\u00a0Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1 + 2<\/em> earlier this year.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

There are plenty of BioWare games that deserve the remaster treatment, but perhaps the games that deserve it the most are\u00a0Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic<\/em> and its sequel,\u00a0The Sith Lords<\/em>. Early precursors to the kind of gameplay found in the\u00a0Mass Effect<\/em> games,\u00a0Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic<\/em> earned widespread acclaim at the time of its release and is often hailed as one of the best\u00a0Star Wars<\/em> video games<\/a> ever made. However, there are some aspects about the game that haven’t aged well, so a potential\u00a0Knights of the Old Republic<\/em> remaster could iron out those issues as well as improve the graphics to match modern standards.<\/p>\n

Mass Effect: Legendary Edition<\/strong><\/em> launches spring 2021 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.<\/p>\n
