BioWare announced yesterday during EA’s Summer Showcase event that it will release a new piece of downloadable content for Mass Effect 3 later this year and it’s titled Leviathan. It’ll be available for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC for $10.

Taking place during the events of Mass Effect 3, players will be thrust into the darkest corners of space where they will hunt a mysterious being rumored to be powerful enough to destroy a Reaper. As they race against time, they will begin to unravel the secret of the Leviathan.

Explore uncharted systems and new areas on the Citadel, interact with brand new characters, unlock the AT-12 Raider shotgun and M-55 Argus Assault Rifle and discover more about the mysterious history of the Reapers.

We’ll have a preview for you next week!
