Mass Effect takes over Game Informer

Game Informer has announced that its next cover story will be for Mass Effect 3 and has shown off some spiffy new artwork of the default 'poster boy' male Commander Shepard standing in front of a Reaper-threatened Earth.

They've promised a gigantic feature on the game in the magazine, which will land in the hands of its many subscribers in the coming days in the form of a whopping twelve pages of screenshots and information on the game.

They'll then also be releasing new information on their official website throughout the month. Game Informer have also recently had The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim as a cover story. We won't be posting any scans - we encourage you to go out and buy the magazine - but we will let you all know what's in the issue in a summary form as soon as we get out hands on it.

In the meantime, check out the cover artwork below and remember you can see our review of Arrival, the final piece of Mass Effect 2 DLC, over in the reviews section.
