Mass Effect Fans Push #SaveMassEffect Petition Past 200,000 Signatures

The #SaveMassEffect petition has reached 200,000 signatures, and its momentum picked up after videos from both actors who have voiced Commander Shepard. Posts from the Destiny community also helped, bringing in supporters who are not necessarily longtime Mass Effect players.

The source material does not spell out the specific decision or development the petition is responding to, so it is unclear from here exactly what outcome supporters want. What is clear is the scale. A fan-driven petition at this size is a strong showing, and having the Shepard actors visibly backing it gives the campaign reach that most grassroots efforts never get.

Petitions of this kind can rise quickly and fade just as fast, so the next thing to watch is whether the developer or publisher responds publicly. We will update this story if a statement or further detail on the campaign's goals becomes available.
