Mass Effect 4 has just gotten more leaks which will leave gamers with mouth-watering faces. With all the success from Mass Effect 3, it is no surprise that fans are always on the lookout for major updates on Bioware's hit title.

First off, there have been rumors that a survey on the game was passed around by a Reddit user to get some impressions. It has already been deleted, but the activity showed that Mass Effect 4 already has an official title and is well in its development.

As reported, the setting will take a complete turn from the trilogy, where events are likely to happen in the Helius Cluster. Gamers will have to decide which sections to colonize in this area in order to gain enhanced equipment and to be able to have missions unlocked. There are also some doubts if Commander Shepard will be making a return in Mass Effect 4.

The survey further leaks that the player will be tasked to look for a new home for the human race, as that of a pathfinder. Gamers will expect to see a "Remnant.' This was the name for a previous generation of strong aliens with advanced equipment that had the ability to take over parts of the galaxy.

An aspect of Mass Effect 4 that will make it literally bigger than its previous version would be that players will have to explore solar systems which span areas up to four times more vast. In terms of the multiplayer mode, gamers will still have to earn XP in order to afford equipment as well as in-game currency.

Another interesting bit of news for Mass Effect 4 comes from GameZone where Ken Thain, the Cinematic Director, shows some behind-the-scenes motion capture action as part of the title's development. Along with a photo, he said on Twitter, "Stunt day for the next #masseffect at The Capture Lab. First Aid is on standby!"

There are definitely a lot more things to learn and even double check for the things being reported on Mass Effect 4. The certain thing is that the Bioware title is definitely happening and it is already in development. Gamers should tune in for more updates on the game and hope that big things will be revealed in E3.
