Mass Effect 3 will be a harder game than the second instalment in the trilogy, series executive producer Casey Hudson has told Belgian gaming magazine CHIEF.
Speaking to the mag – translated by NeoGAF – Hudson said that in ME3, “Normal is the new Veteran”.
Mass Effect 2 offered the following difficulty settings: casual, normal, veteran, hardcore and insanity.
This means the base level game is about one difficulty level harder than that of Mass Effect 2.
According to the magazine, enemies in Mass Effect 3 will also make use of expanded tactics to defeat players – flanking them or calling in reinforcements are examples.
Mass Effect 3 is scheduled for release in winter 2011.
