This weekend is geared up to proffer Mass Effect 3 multiplayer gamers with all new bonuses through the new Operation Raptor challenge. The event however, will only be made available to Xbox 360 and PC gamers. BioWare has said on its official blog that it is still ”˜continuing to work with Sony’ in order to bring such features to the PS3, and details regarding the same can be revealed later this week.
Players will be required to promote two of their characters to their single player campaigns, a feat which would reward them with Commendation Packs. Moreover, if players from all over the world promote 150,000 characters in total, Victory Packs will be doled out to all of them. These packs will be made available to download in the following week. Gamers wishing to participate must note that they should set the ”˜Upload Gameplay Feedback’ option to ”˜On’ before starting.
