Mass Effect fans, here is something special for you today. Modder ‘Aphar’ has released a first-person mod for the first game of the Mass Effect Legendary Edition collection.
By using this mod, you can play the entire first game via a first-person perspective. This mod supports both combat and exploration, and we are pretty sure that most ME fans will appreciate it.
As the modder noted, cover and visibility are now an important part of gameplay, as all combat cameras have been adjusted for the new perspective. This includes multiple depths of corner peeking/shooting and a dynamic lean feature.
Additionally, the game’s movement in exploration mode has been modified to feel more responsive. The turn speed of sprinting has also been increased, and sprinting does not change the FOV.
For those wondering, yes. Even the elevator rides are now in first-person mode. However, conversions will be similar to those of the vanilla version.
The only downside is that Shepard’s hands and gun will also not appear when in first-person perspective. However, that’s a small price to pay for such an unofficial FPS Mode.
You can download the mod from here. Below you can also find a video that showcases it in action.
Have fun!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.
