The Mass Effect Remastered Trilogy<\/em><\/strong> is rumored to be getting announced by BioWare in October. This would likely see remasters of the original games released with their full DLC already attached, including Mass Effect 3: Leviathan<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The Leviathan DLC explores the history of an alien race that helps explain a lot about the backstory of the Mass Effect<\/em> universe. But who are the Leviathans and what role will they play in the Mass Effect Remastered Trilogy<\/em><\/a>?<\/p>\n

The Leviathans were ginormous aquatic creatures that dominated the Milky Way galaxy before the Reapers<\/a> came into being. They are the same size and shape as Reapers, and are the organic blueprint upon which the Reapers were based.<\/p>\n

The Leviathans peaked in their power hundreds of millions of years before the events of the Mass Effect<\/em> trilogy. The species has the ability to mentally control less intelligent beings in a way that resembles the Reaper\u2019s indoctrination in Mass Effect<\/em><\/a>, but they can also use this ability to communicate telepathically to another, possibly in a similar way to the rachni.<\/p>\n

It is unknown what planet the Leviathans originally evolved on, but like something from a Lovecraft novel, the cuttlefish-like Leviathans began to use their psychic abilities to\u00a0control species that evolved on land, even on other planets, and manipulate them into performing their will. This is how they were able to dominate the species of the\u00a0Mass Effect<\/em>\u00a0galaxy,<\/a> but with their domination came\u00a0their downfall.<\/p>\n

The Leviathans created an \u201cIntelligence\u201d and gave it one goal: preserve life at all costs. This Intelligence began to collect genetic data from species across the galaxy, using pawns that likely operated in a similar way to the reaper\u2019s Collectors first seen in Mass Effect 2<\/em><\/a>. When the Intelligence decided that the best way to preserve life was the systematic destruction of advanced organic civilizations every 50,000 years, it turned on the Leviathans with devastating speed.<\/p>\n

Using the genetic data harvested from the dead Leviathans, the Intelligence created Harbinger in their image, the first Reaper. The surviving Leviathans fled and would not be rediscovered until the events of the Mass Effect 3<\/em> DLC<\/a>. After the Leviathans went into hiding they began to use their powers to erase the memory of themselves from the universe. Not only did they hide, but they did not reemerge as the Reapers destroyed civilization after civilization.<\/p>\n

The Leviathans are found in hiding during the Reaper invasion<\/a> in Mass Effect 3<\/em> on the asteroid of Mahavid, where the Leviathans have enthralled the staff of a mining station. The Leviathans are found to have the ability to sever the link that Reapers have between their legions of Collector troops, making gaining their aid vital in the war.<\/p>\n

It will be interesting to see whether BioWare takes the remaster as an opportunity to include more hints and Mass Effect\u00a0<\/em>Easter eggs<\/a> that point to some of the trilogy\u2019s biggest secrets like the Leviathans. While it could be satisfying to see them integrated more into the story, many fans will likely not want to see many changes made to the actual narrative of Mass Effect<\/em> itself.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless with the DLC likely releasing as part of the Mass Effect 3<\/em> remaster at launch, the Mass Effect Remastered Trilogy<\/em> could see the DLCs feeling more like a part of the main story to begin with, perhaps with some small changes made to integrate the missions more into the overarching plot. No matter which route BioWare goes down, fans will have to wait and see if this remaster is indeed in the works.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0<\/strong>Mass Effect Remastered Trilogy\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>is reportedly in development.<\/p>\n
