EA and BioWare stated that Mass Effect 3 will be available through both Origin and third-party digital retailers, but not via Valve’s distribution service. Does this ring any bell?

The game will be developed by BioWare and in cased you didn’t catch it, it will be a PC exclusive title as the only available platform – for the time being – is the PC. Given that this is EA though, we might see it on consoles too. However, the game is PC exclusive for now. Interesting, no?

BioWare and Frostbite 2.0 in a strategy game. Seriously now, what more could you ask for? The game is currently slated for a 2013 release and we have some screen-grabs from the official release, the first details, system requirements and its teaser trailer after the jump. Enjoy everyone!

Dragon Age: Blood Mage Crusade – as it will be called – is currently slated for a February 11th release and TOEntertainment released a new trailer for it that can be viewed bellow. Enjoy!
