Details on downloadable content for upcoming EA/BioWare sci-fi RPG Mass Effect 3 were accidentally posted on the official Xbox website.

Warning: The below DLC description contains spoilers, which have been marked with darkened text. To see the spoilers, highlight the text.

Game Informer reports that on Xbox.com, a listing had appeared for Mass Effect 3 DLC titled From Ashes. The content cost 800 Microsoft Points ($10), was 628MB, could not be downloaded, and was removed from Xbox.com sometime after its appearance.

The description for From Ashes read:

Unearth lost secrets from the past and recruit the Prothean squad member in Mass Effect 3: From Ashes.

BioWare Producer Mike Gamble confirmed the DLC’s existence, said it would be available at launch on all platforms, and that gamers who have purchased the N7 Collector’s Edition — including the PC Digital Deluxe Edition — will receive the content for free. He also promised that more details were coming later this week.

  1. with mass effect 2 you got Zaeed for free when you bought any of the versions new. Now in mass effect 3 we get an online pass AND have to buy the character seperately? bs I hate ea

      you’re right, they’re adding less value because they’re providing multiplayer modes rather than just giving us a free character…the online pass doesn’t hurt you either, if you were planning on getting the game anyway, does it?

  2. Damnit. When I pre-ordered the game, Gamestop was already out of Collectors Edition slots so I had to make do with the regular one :(

    Yeah, definitely not excited over watching Bioware fuck up the lore that they created even more than they already have

    Well at a file size of 628 MB I guess it’s safe to assume that its not on-disc DLC. Which will undoubtedly make some people happy.

    I have heard a lot of people saying they will be boycotting this game. I’ve heard people for and against this. I like the mass effect series and I will be buying this game. I won’t be getting it the first day it comes out, but I will get it eventually.
