User blog comment:Masseffect7/Shadow Realms Delayed According to Reports/@comment-4121017-20150112233942/@comment-11209678-20150116182059

@Observer, my thoughts exactly, while this likely has little effect on the release date of ME Next, it likely does affect how Mass Effect is promoted up to the release. BioWare wouldn't want to be marketing ME around the release of another BioWare game because they wouldn't want to "drown out" the other game. Now there is a big gap between the last BioWare release (Dragon Age:Inquisition) and the next one (Mass Effect: Next). Generally, game companies want to stay in the news as much as they can for marketing reasons. I would not be surprised to see drips of information flow out of BioWare about Mass Effect in the coming weeks. The only thing that would prevent this would be any announcements of DLC for DA:I, which would not surprise me either.
