After suffering a delay last year, BioWare's Mass Effect 3 received an official release date during EA's press briefing at this year's Electronic Entertainment Expo in June, where the publisher announced that the role-playing sequel would arrive on PCs, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 on March 6, 2012.
Now, BioWare has announced a pre-release demo for the game in January 2012 via a post on the Bioware Social Network forums.
According to the announcement, the demo will include both single-player and multiplayer sections, and will be released in all regions where the game is being released.
BioWare also announced that players who purchased a copy of EA's upcoming Battlefield 3 on any platform, and who activate the Online Pass for the game, will automatically be granted early access to the multiplayer part of the Mass Effect 3 demo. A tool posted on www.masseffect.com will allow players to check if their EA account has been granted early access.
