The Australian Xbox.com web site has revealed the release date for Mass Effect in the Land Downunder. According the product's web page, Mass Effect will launch down there on May 18, 2007. We don't expect this title to arrive earlier on any territory before it hits North American retailers, so this Australian release date confirms that we can expect this UE3-powered action role-playing game before the four week of May.


Mass Effect is a science-fiction action and role-playing game created by BioWare, the commercially and critically acclaimed RPG developer of �Jade Empire�� and �Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic.� Mass Effect will deliver an immersive, story-driven gameplay experience with stunning visual fidelity. Published by Microsoft Game Studios, Mass Effect is an exclusive title for the Xbox 360 video game system.

***UPDATE***

"An incorrect release date for Mass Effect was inadvertently posted on Xbox.com Australia and has since been removed," a Microsoft representative said. "We will keep you posted on the ongoing development of Mass Effect, however, we have no announcements regarding the game's release date at this time."
