BioWare has revealed development on the next Mass Effect title is progressing well, explaining that it's somewhere around the middle of development.
In a tweet, BioWare Montreal studio director Yanick Roy responded to a fan asking whether the game was in the early or late stages of development to explain neither statement was technically accurate.

@Jackmayall5757 Too late for one, too early for the other... So I guess we're somewhere in the middle? :-)
While we have no idea about when the game will be released, we do know that we're due an update sometime this year. So far all we've had are a few teaser images, word that it'll apparently be fresh but recognisable, and may not relate to Shepard at all.
BioWare has said in the past that it doesn't want the game to be viewed as Mass Effect 4, as such a title does it a disservice. Whatever it ends up being called, our money's on new info coming our way at E3. Not long now, folks.
