Mass Effect 3 Going Digital Day One

When Mass Effect 3 comes out at the beginning of next month, you'll obviously be able to buy it in all the usual ways: digital distribution on PC and physical copies for consoles and traditionalist PC users. Bioware have just announced that you'll also be able to pick it up from the PlayStation Store as well, which will be exciting for people who hate getting a fair price on their gaming experiences.

If you pre-order the digital version, you'll get an exclusive rifle – the M55 Argus – and a theme.

"The Argus is a high-powered rifle and an excellent close-range weapon. Its bursts of fire ensure ammunition conservation during lengthy conflicts. Law-enforcement agencies across the Mass Effect galaxy are adopting the Argus as their standard rifle, as much for its intimidation factor as its suppression power."

And this increasingly popular rifle can only be acquired as exclusive DLC at the PlayStation Store, available for pre-order today!
