The author of Deus Ex will be working on the next Mes Effect
After the news of Mary DeMarle joining BioWare, it has now been revealed that she will be the lead director of the new version. Copper Effect has been selected.
Michael Gamble, project manager at BioWare, announced the news on Twitter. In the past, DeMarle worked as a writer and creative director in games like Deus Ex: Human Revolution, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, and his addition to the Copper Effect 4 development team is definitely the expected quality level of this game. will raise He also won the Best Narrative award last year for the story of Guardians of the Galaxy.
DeMarle's departure from Edus Montreal followed the sale of the studio to Embracer. It's worth noting that last summer he explained his perspective on the relationship between gameplay and narrative in game development, which reads:
Over the many years I've worked in the industry, I've always known that the story often depends on the gameplay. However, if I understand the game and the feeling I want to create for the players, I can understand the mechanics of the gameplay and see that the story is there to support or drive it. How can the things I write contribute to what the gameplay needs, etc.? Once you know the game you're looking for and understand why it's made, then you'll get a consistent connection between narrative and gameplay from this point of view.
The new version of Copper Effect is currently in the early stages of its development process and not much information has been published about it. However, it has been said that this game will be developed using Unreal Engine 5. As you probably know, the original Copper Effect trilogy was made using Unreal Engine 3, and since then, other Bioware studio games, such as Copper Effect: Andromeda and Dragon Age: Inquisition, have been made using the Frostbite engine, which belongs to Electronic Arts.
The legendary version of Copper Effect, which includes the reconstruction of the three original games of the series along with their add-on packs, is now available for the 8th and 9th generation consoles of Xbox, PlayStation and PC.
