Uh oh! The cover art for Mass Effect 3 was posted on the EA website for a very very brief period of time. It may have been by accident, but who knows. What we do know is that it showed the purple banner for Kinect on it. Check it out.


At first your thinking, this is cool we get to see the box art. On the other hand this spells trouble for the next installment to the Mass Effect franchise. I own a Kinect, and barely use it, I hope that they can make these hardcore titles work for the peripheral. As of right now though I am highly skeptical of this. Kinect better not ruin Mass Effect 3.

Well, ME3 is not an exclusive xbox title, so I'm sure you'll be able to play without the Kinect.

You're sourcing Kotaku now?

And look what happens when I update the link. So maybe it was an accidental leak. Either way, I will get Mass Effect 3 on PS3 if I have to.

If Gouki is willing to get it on PS3 to avoid the Kinect that should tell you something. But I'm sure that it's just an option, their sales would drop way to much if they forced you to use the Kinect. I'm going to guess that it'll work with the Move on PS3 also.

It makes sense with Move, Move has button. I'm not going to be arguing with my imaginary wrist charm in the middle of a fight.

Well I said in the summary that it may have been an accidental leak. So you updating the picture kills the story. Thanks.
