We’re starting to get more details about the upcoming Mass Effect 3 DLC: Leviathan. It’s the hunt for a rogue reaper who's

indoctrinated a mining colony. It features difficult combat, pouring rain, and a giant undersea mech. It’s about the size of Lair of the Shadow Broker and takes place in the middle of Mass Effect 3’s story.

And, according to IGN, it’s going to create some new options in the ending. Again.

If I were with Bioware, I’d be trying my best to avoid the words “ending” and “Mass Effect" appearing in the same story ever again, but the urge to tinker can be overpowering. I’ve already ended my Mass Effect experience two different times. The idea of doing it again is a little bit tiring.

The Reapers were always some of my favorite characters in Mass Effect, so it’ll be interesting to see one of the ancient monsters with a different agenda. But mid-story DLC like this is always problematic. The war for the fate of the galaxy already had its conclusion, and it essentially asks the player to play through the entire game again.

As I’ve said before, I haven’t had quite enough of Mass Effect yet. I’d love to play through the adventures of Thane or some kind of wisecracking criminal we’ve yet to meet. Shepard, on the other hand, already finished his or her story. Trying to bloat it out in the middle just feels excessive.
