What we know so far

Automatic note by LuaCat Games, built from what we know about the coverage (who reported it, how many sites, the story’s history) — not a translation or copy of the source.

This comes from Rock Paper Shotgun, which does its own reporting — for now, it's the only coverage. The previous Mass Effect trailer came out one day before this story. In the 30 days before this one, 53 other Mass Effect stories ran here.

Bottom line: Safe to take the main point — it's the fine detail that sometimes shifts later.
