Dialogue and Cinematics
Mass Effect 2 adds a large new feature to the dialogue system: Interrupts. The interrupt system will allow Shepard to take more physical action in a conversation, either through a Renegade hostile interrupt or a Paragon heroic interrupt.

Downloadable Content
The development team also plans for much more extensive downloadable content than what was available in Mass Effect, with a large portion of the Mass Effect 2 team moving to DLC after release. Those who buy a new copy of the game get a free activation code to the Cerberus Network, while those who buy used copies will have to pay a yet unspecified activation fee. This will reportedly include:
 * Zaeed Messani, a human bounty hunter and mercenary hired by Cerberus to join Shepard's squad.
 * Hammerhead, a hover tank which will allow exploration of harsh planetary environments.
 * Episodic combat, weapon and armor packs, characters, worlds and full campaign expansions will reportedly be available for download.
 * Periodic updates via the in-game 'Cerberus Network'.
 * Smaller and larger DLC options with varied pricing.
