Mass Effect 3 is definitely happening, that’s for sure; the franchise was always intended to be a trilogy. But what about the story in between the second and third chapters? According to BioWare lead producer Casey Hudson, the answer is downloadable content.

“We have a bunch of packs that are in the works right now,” Hudson told VideoGamer.com.

Mass Effect 2 has already seen the release of ‘Kasumi – Stolen Memory’, it’s first story-based downloadable content. This June brings the second, titled ‘Overlord’, pitting Shepard against a hybrid AI at a Cerberus research base.

“So, for the time being there’s going to be a continued stream of DLC for people. We’ll start to have packs that’ll tell the story between Mass Effect 2 and 3. But beyond that we kind of have to see how people are responding to what we have and go from there.”

Regarding Mass Effect 3, don’t expect details any time soon.

“It probably won’t be for quite a few months that we talk about Mass Effect 3,” Hudson told the site.

There goes hopes for an E3 reveal.

    The MASS EFFECT series is the best experiance in an RPG i’ve ever had. I am so addicted to this series it’s not funny. Just when I thought there was not much else I could do, BiOWARE announce more goodies for me.

    Keep that DLC coming, and can’t wait for MASS EFFECT 3.
