Introduced in a DLC pack for Mass Effect 2, this rifle is a single shot and semi-automatic instrument of complete destruction. It’s also a very reliable automatic rifle. In a way, it’s a mascot of the franchise that features the same arc aesthetic that’s present in the Normandy’s design and even the title logo. The M-8 Avenger is to Mass Effect as the M41A Pulse Rifle is to Aliens. It may not be the best, prettiest, or most useful gun in the series… but it may just be the most iconic. We have some big favorites from the first three games, but there are 10 in particular we want to see make big returns for the next generation installment of the franchise. Despite any rumors about the characters or the premise, however, one thing is certain: you will be shooting a lot of guns. Mass Effect 4 is in the works, and while we don’t know too much at the moment we have some ideas regarding the story and the overall gameplay.
