There have been rumours that one of the new features in Bioware's upcoming Mass Effect 3 would be some kind of multiplayer component. The next issue of Xbox 360 World (as seen on CVG) appears to have information on multiplayer in the upcoming blockbusting end to the trilogy.
It would appear as definite confirmation, but we would like to see exactly what the inside of the magazine says. Perhaps, there is an official announcement coming at Gamescom next week. What's even more interesting is - if there is multiplayer in Mass Effect 3 - what kind of multiplayer will there be? Co-operative campaign play? Death match? Horde style co-operative missions? Team-based multiplayer? Or something completely different?
