Female Commander Shepard To Appear In Some Mass Effect 3 Trailers

FemShep To Appear In Some Marketing Materials Says BioWare Marketing Director, Lady Shepard Also To Costar On Cover Of Mass Effect 3 Collector's Edition Box

The Mass Effect series is great at letting you create your own custom Commander Shepard, then rocking the galaxy with him for hours of fun. If you’re like me, you’ve spent so much time with your own Commander Shepard, that when you see commercials for the new Mass Effect game, you don’t even know who that guy in the commercials even is. Well, to partly relieve that, it’s come out that EA/BioWare will now include female Shepard (the so-called Lady Shepard or FemShep) in the marketing for Mass Effect 3, more so then they have.

On Twitter, David Silverman, BioWare’s Director of Marketing tweeted to a fan that that would be making a female Shepard trailer. Here’s what he said:

there will be a #FemShep trailer. We actually had a meeting on her yesterday. We are working on the look now.

Silverman went on to say that the collector’s edition of Mass Effect 3 will also feature both male Shepard and female Shepard on the cover. Surely, this will all make the FemShep fans happy, considering that I don’t think she’s been shown in any official trailers or materials before, and there has been some debate over if the “canon” Shepard is male or female. Worrying about such things is kinda pointless, but I digress.

Even though the Female Shepard will be in the trailer, it still won’t be your Shepard, unless you play as the default one. I play as a Male Shepard in my Mass Effect adventures, and I’m still constantly surprised by the random dude showing up in the Mass Effect trailers. But, that’s just the nature of these games with customizable main characters.

Mass Effect 3 is slated for a launch on March 6, 2012. In the meantime, tell us if you play as BroShep or FemShep in the comments.
