On November 7th, the annual N7 celebratory day for the Mass Effect franchise, a resourceful group of fans ME3Tweaks released a mod on Nexus: the Pinnacle Station DLC missing from the Legendary Edition, the recently released remaster of the trilogy. According to Bioware, the original source code for the DLC was lost which would have required the company to recreate the DLC from scratch.
“Mass Effect Legendary Edition: Pinnacle Station is an enhanced port of the original Pinnacle Station DLC, which was not included in the Legendary Edition due to lost and corrupted source code. The ME3Tweaks group has ported this DLC across from the original game, while remastering it in the same vein as the Legendary Edition and fixing numerous issues. This is the complete DLC: Pinnacle Station including all simulator maps. No content was cut for this port.”
Check out the lengthy blog post released by ME3Tweaks to learn how the team approached the technically daunting task of porting the DLC from the original Mass Effect into its Legendary Edition counterpart.
