Although Mass Effect 4 is expected to come out in game consoles by next year, the revealed online multiplayer component of its fourth installment brought the shooter video game ringing on the web with multiple claps of praises.

In a report, Mass Effect 4's storyline will deviate from the tradition of Commander Shepard as seen in the trilogy, but Bioware earlier suggested they would have nothing to do with the sequel.

Multiplayers will be allowed to mingle with different creatures as there will be other humanoid and alien races to converse with of exciting personalities.

Bioware's Senior Development director Chris Wynn turned to microblogging site Twitter and said in his post: "If anyone is concerned that online will take away from single player, I assure you that SP will be MASSIVE in the next Mass Effect."

Wynn took on a conversation with an anticipating fan of Mass Effect who expressed he does not want a multiplayer element in the game, and he responded: "Keep in mind that many people do."

Aaryn Flynn, Bioware's general manager, furthered on NeoGAF forum that Mass Effect 4 will not take advantage of the studio's game like the open world role playing title "Dragon Age Inquisition."

He stated: "The next Mass Effect will be (and should be) drawing on its own rich and successful past more than what DAI would say it should do. Take the Mako, something we've already shown in prototype form. We had that in ME1, and bringing it back is more related to a feeling that we can do it much better than we did before and fulfill the original promise of that gameplay."

Executives of the gaming firm have not released any official announcement for the release date yet. However, according to some report analysis, Mass Effect 4 will come out by first quarter of 2016.

Online games tipster @shinobi602 also confirmed on Twitter the date and believed that more Mass Effect 4 gameplay details could find their way in public on the annual Mass Effect holiday on November 7.

Also, a demonstration during San Diego Comic-Con 2014 said that a street arrival is still "years away," which implies 2016.

Meanwhile, a brief game demo is also expected at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3).

Mass Effect 3's single player campaign has drawn mixed criticisms regarding the fortune of the lead character as he tried to eliminate wicked race called Reapers from the galaxy.

"Mass Effect 4" is expected to release on PS4, Xbox One and PC.
