Amazon is nearing a deal to make a Mass Effect TV series - Ars Technica

Amazon is nearing a deal with Electronic Arts to develop a TV series for the Prime Video streaming service based on the beloved Mass Effect video game franchise.

If the Mass Effect series is still in the negotiations phase as Deadline reports, then we will, in all likelihood, have to wait until well after 2022 to see the show's premiere?

Would a Mass Effect TV series retell the story of the games or a new story.

The timing could work out, though, as publisher EA and developer BioWare (which is owned by EA) are in the relatively early stages of developing the first new Mass Effect game since 2017's Mass Effect: Andromeda.

Andromeda saw a lukewarm reception (though some people liked it), so it's been a while since Mass Effect has been an IP to be reckoned with.
