Mass Effect 3 Site Launches, "Fall of Earth" Trailer, N7 Collector's Edition Revealed

The official site for Mass Effect 3 has officially launched, and a new trailer is available as well. Entitled "Fall of Earth," this action packed trailer shows some cool features and sets a nice tone for this dark third chapter in the franchise.

You can check the trailer out here or below.



Not only does it seem Shepard's Omni-Tool functions as a blade now, but was that a dodge/roll I saw Shepard do? Hopefully that's an actual maneuver and not a cinematic, as I've long felt the series needs a dodge option. There's obviously going to be some turret sequences, and Liara can be glimpsed briefly in the trailer as well.

And if the above wasn't cool enough, the Mass Effect 3: N7 Collector's Edition has also been announced! It will contain:

- A premium metal case (and Shepard looks very Renegade now)
- A hardbound art book
- A limited edition comic by Dark Horse Comics
- A fabric patch
- A lithographic 4x6 print
- Unique in-game content such as extra weapons, a robotic dog sidekick, and extra outfits
- The digital soundtrack
- A Normandy Avatar Prop (Xbox 360 Only)
- Forum badges, avatars, etc.

You can read the full details and check out the pic here.

If this Collector's Edition is truly limited as Mass Effect 2's was, you will want to pre-order this to guarantee your copy. I know I'll be doing so.

Mass Effect 3 will release on the Xbox 360, PC, and PlayStation 3 on March 6th, 2011.
