Thanks to Funimation Productions, we now have our very first look at the upcoming anime movie Mass Effect: Paragon Lost.

This new teaser’s YouTube page has this description:

Mass Effect: Paragon Lost is the prequel to the highly-anticipated Mass Effect 3 and follows the early career of Alliance Marine, James Vega. Vega leads an elite Special Forces squad into battle against a mysterious alien threat known as The Collectors. Stationed at a colony in a remote star system, Vega and his soldiers must protect the civilians from a ruthless invasion determined to capture the population for unknown purposes

Anyone who has played the latest chapter in the Mass Effect saga is already familiar with Vega. He’s a hardened soldier who had seen his squad wiped out by Collectors prior to the events in ME3.

What I’m trying to say is Paragon Lost probably won’t be a happy tale.

Regardless, more Mass Effect is certainly a good thing in my eyes. I’m not the biggest connoisseur of anime, but I really dig the art style seen in this teaser.

What do you think? Are you too bitter over Mass Effect 3’s fumbled ending to give Paragon Lost a shot? Let us know in the comments.

For all of your Mass Effect and PC gaming news, keep it here on GAMEBREAKER.

    Anime is my thing. This is some really old news though.

    why? because its mass effect got tons of lore has nothing to do with the ending .

    This would have piqued my interest in February.  Since the way BioWware handled the ME3 ending atrocity, I have lost all interest in the franchise.  Which is sad because it had the potential to be another Star Trek/Wars.

      That’s actually why I’m somewhat glad I hadn’t been playing the game all this time.  

      But I will admit it should be fun to see an anime version (anime asari!)

    Production IG… the makers of Ghost in the Shell, FLCL & Eden of the East
    This could actually turn out well.
