All PC keyboard and mouse gamers rejoice! It’s official, Mass Effect is no longer an Xbox 360 exclusive. In May this year the critically acclaimed and freakin amazing, epic game will premiere on the PC. While it may seem like a good ways off still, this should give PC gamers some time to earn a little extra upgrade cash for beefing up their PC for the likely intensive requirements the game will demand when it releases. Now there’s two games to upgrade for, Crysis and Mass Effect. Maybe even Starcraft 2 later this year.

Here’s an excerpt from the official press release of some of the new features exclusive to PC:

Optimized for the PC, Mass Effect for the PC incorporates the following features:
• Optimized controls designed specifically for the PC.
• High resolution visuals – Mass Effect for the PC features highly detailed textures, characters and environments.
• Fully customizable controls – PC gamers can re-map the control scheme any way they like.
• Run & Gun Control – Players can assign biotic powers or skills to ‘hot keys’ allowing them to play Mass Effect with a heavier focus on action.
• New decryption mini-game.
• New inventory screen GUI and functionality – The enhanced inventory system makes it easier for players to equip and modify their weapons and armor.

Boom!
