Mass Effect 2 is always an in-demand game for some, however for those who have never been given a chance to play the game, they should be able to set up an EA Origin account within the day. The trilogy's second installment will be given away for free since it is a part of the Origin on the House promotion from EA. They will require Origin to be installed in order to avail this offer.
Origin on the House is a campaign that is promoted by EA for the purpose of bringing old games for the masses, and it is also done to make improvements on the popularity of Origin to the gaming audience. Prior to the development of Mass Effect 2, 1997's Dungeon Keeper was offered for free. It therefore attracted new generation of players so that they can experience the thrill of tunneling and playing as an evil character.
At present, the titles that will be offered through Origin are available only for PC, so console gamers are not lucky enough to avail these games. EA has identified the Mass Effect trilogy as their flagship for many years already since its release in 2007. The series came at a low point when it concluded, and it caused its developer BioWare to alter its original ending just so fans could be pacified, according to Game Rant.
This mishap may have caused for the Mass Effect 2 to be in retrospect to be the highest point of the series, even if it was already mentioned to be a contender to the game of the year in 2012. Mass Effect 2 is undoubtedly a great game because of its vibrant setting and on-point cast. Due to the popularity of the Mass Effect trilogy, EA and Bioware automatically announced a new series that will be set in the same universe. They will call this first installment Andromeda.
