It received a generally negative reception from video game publications, with a predominant view among reviewers that the pack was uninspiring, unnecessary and represents poor value for money. Pinnacle Station is the second and final downloadable content pack for Mass Effect. The pack follows a squad led by Commander Shepard as they undergo special operations training on Pinnacle Station, a concealed military training facility. Pinnacle Station was released for the Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows on August 25, 2009. Mass Effect: Pinnacle Station is a downloadable content (DLC) expansion pack developed by Demiurge Studios on behalf of Mass Effect franchise creator BioWare and published by Electronic Arts for the 2007 action role-playing video game Mass Effect. The title will have forward compatibility on PlayStation 5, including performance enhancements for the next-gen console.Action role-playing, third-person shooter Mass Effect Legendary Edition is set to release on May 14 on PlayStation 4. To do so would have meant the team trying to find a way to implement cross-play between PS3 and PS4, as well as trying to create a great experience for both new players and those still playing the original multiplayer today. Extra development time is a reason why the game’s multiplayer will not be included either. To leave out the content was a decision Walters called “heartbreaking”, but delaying the game purely for this reason would not have made sense. Pinnacle Station could only be included if the team was to remake it from scratch, a process that would take an additional six months. Even the studio that originally created the DLC, Demiurge Studios, was unable to provide a backup because their data had been corrupted too. As GameInformer explains, this is because the DLC’s source code has become corrupted, the same reason PlayStation 3 players weren’t able to experience the DLC when the game was released on that platform.
One DLC that will be missing, though, is Pinnacle Station. The Legendary Edition will include the single-player base content and more than 40 DLCs from Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, and Mass Effect 3.
Ultimately, y’know… you finish a game and there’s things that you wished you had been able to do, things that you’d want to add on… for me, the extended cut was really that opportunity to add a little bit more love, a little bit more context around the ending. For those people who had the extended cut, that sort of became the experience for them, and so that will be the experience for everybody playing the Legendary Edition as well. We wanted to include as much of the content as possible as DLC, and then also incorporate it into the experience as you would if you’d downloaded that content.
