Mass Effect 3: Extended Cut DLC release date announced

Mass Effect 3's Extended Cut DLC launches for PC and Xbox 360 on 26th June and on 4th July for PlayStation 3, publisher EA has announced.

The free add-on will "expand upon the events at the end of" BioWare's RPG sequel, "through additional cinematic sequences and epilogue scenes."

"To experience the Extended Cut, load a save game from before the attack on the Cerberus Base and play through to the end of the game," explained a brief FAQ on the game's official site.

"The Extended Cut endings will differ depending on choices made throughout the Mass Effect series, so multiple playthroughs with a variety of different decisions will be required to experience the variety of possibilities offered by the new content."
