Review: Mass Effect 3 DLC Leviathan

Howdy there folks!

 

With the release of the Leviathan, many fans are now picking up their copies of the game and heading back once more to face against the Reapers. Leviathan sees Shepard facing a rumour of a device, only known as Leviathan, that has the ability to destroy the Reapers. On orders directly from Hackett to investigate, we are wurled away to discover the new adventure for us.

Firstly, we can notice how far the team at Bioware had gone to polish the game, as the opening cinematic shows us flying into the Citadel to a contact, Dr. Bryson. To which after he tells us more, he proceeds to have his brain matter plastered on his walls. From this, we must piece together clues in order to follow one of the man's contacts.
*NOTE: This next part has stumped a few people, so this should help out*
From here, we are told to search his office. There are a few fun things to talk about, such as his own half of a Prothean Beacon, Shepard remarking that "Liara and Dr Bryson would have a lot to talk about", a piece of Sovereign's leg "Vanguard to our destruction...how's it going big guy?" and a husk head on a small electric plate, it screams each time you touch it. While fun, these are not the things you need.
Remember to search around the entire area. There are four main areas inside his office, there being 6 main clues. However, only three are needed. Without these main three, you are required to search different areas in the galaxy until able to find said area. These clues needed are the "Animal Activity", "Reaper Activity", and "Element Zero Deposits". With this, you can find the specific area to travel to.

I won't divulge in anything from here on out, but we can see that Bioware has pulled out all the stops for the DLC. Some moments in voice acting seems a little dull but the majority of the vocal acting is brilliant. Gameplay is relitively the same, other the multiplayer games coming into the campaign. Escourting drones and transporting items are parts of the puzzling in game, such as fixing doors and giving energy to consoles.

I cannot state anything wrong with the DLC as there is nothing to point out.

Leviathan has definitely come out of the gate with guns blazing. With brand new weapons upgrades, new interesting plot line and a giant twist, this DLC has left this gamer very satisfied.

Out of 10, I gave Mass Effect 3 Leviathan a 9.5/10

Good Points
+Excellent storyline
+Jaw dropping plot twists
+Great character development
+ New weapons? AWESOME!

Bad Points
-It's great, but lacks that "Umph" factor.

The Leviathan DLC is out now for 800 MSP ($10)
