If there was one major plot concern that wasn’t addressed in Mass Effect 2, it was why the hell the Shadow Broker was so interested in Commander Shepard’s body. The Mass Effect comic mini-series, Redemption, lightly explored the struggle my ex-girlfriend Liara went through to recover Shepard’s body. In the latest DLC that BioWare has announced today titled “Lair of the Shadow Broker,” you, your crew and Liara T’Soni will join ranks to seek out the Shadow Broker and hopefully find out the secret behind his plans. It could be just plain greed with the intent to profit off the body of a strong Commander of the galaxy, Saren’s killer, but it has to be more than that.

Other than this slight bit of information, BioWare has released three new screenshots of the new DLC package which you can find below. No release date yet, but we’ll be keeping you all updated. Of all the DLC released thus far for Mass Effect 2, this one seems the most promising to me that I might finally be willing to shell out some dinero for, seeing as the plot is actually connected to the game’s story and a serious plot point that I have been interested in for a while. Will anyone else be joining me on picking this bad boy up?
