Here are the major differences in the Mass Effect Legendary Edition.

The Mass Effect Legendary Edition, the upcoming remastered version of the Mass Effect Trilogy is here. It brings Mass Effect 1, Mass Effect 2, and Mass Effect 3 together in one launcher. There will be over 40 single-player DLCs from all three titles. Improved versions, shaders, effects, illumination, and depth of field are among the visual enhancements.
