According to Eurogamer Biowares highly anticipated new title in the highly acclaimed Mass Effect series will feature a form of 4 player online co-op. The missions will be independent of the main story will include "competitive elements (im guessing a scoring system) and 'not' take anything away from the single player experience as they are being worked on separately. There will only be a handful of the co-op missions which will be built around "original missions but made for online". Bioware Montreal are said to be really behind the idea of online co-op missions too.​

​

Mainstream penetration is a major goal for Mass Effect 3 and those high up feel online co-op is the answer they're looking for, EA's keen to push the multiplayer side of the game to help spread word of mouth - so it's not just going to rehash stuff from the campaign. It's going all out.

​

No official word has been said about the online but Ray Muzyka had been quoted as to saying that the studio is "exploring" multiplayer for all of its games.​
