BioWare Reveals Mass Effect 2′s Illusive Man

During the latest episode of GamerTrailers TV, BioWare revealed The Illusive Man, the head of Cerberus. They’ve, also, released new information about Mass Effect 2, revealing a new squad member that goes by the name of Mordin, Garrus’ introduction phase into Mass Effect 2, and the Vanguard class, a new character class.

But, first, The Illusive Man. Commander Shepard is now working for Cerberus, meaning that The Illusive Man is Shepard’s new boss. However, him and Shepard have this “love/hate relationship” – Shepard is putting up with The Illusive Man because he needs information from Cerberus to piece together the mystery taking place within Mass Effect 2.

In addition, BioWare also revealed the Vanguard class, which is home to a new “Charge Ability”; the higher the level of your character, the more abilities can be added into the Charge Ability, like slow motion (please view the view from a more in-dept look at this new class).

They’ve also revealed Garrus’ introduction phase: you’ll meet up with Garrus during a gang war on Omega, one of the many planets in the Mass Effect universe. However, last, but not least, Mordin, a smart-mouth and witty new squad member (expect more details soon). With that said, you can view the GameTrailers TV episode for even more details about the game.
