In a January 29 announcement describing its commitment to Mass Effect 5, EA declares BioWare does not "require support from the full studio" while developing the space RPG, though the publisher fails to reveal if the Dragon Age creator is undergoing layoffs.
"In keeping with our fierce commitment to innovating during the development and delivery of Mass Effect," BioWare general manager Gary McKay writes in the announcement, "we have challenged ourselves to think deeply about delivering the best experience to our fans. We are taking this opportunity between full development cycles to reimagine how we work at BioWare."
