美国媒体报道，日前，传奇影业对于新启动的把游戏改编成电影的《质量效应》又有了新进展。在诸多游戏迷的担忧下，制作方宣布电影版《质量效应》将会百分百的忠于原著。 对于既是影迷又是游戏迷的粉丝们来说这是个令人兴奋的消息，早在2011年5月份，传奇影业就已经宣布买下了热门游戏《质量效应》系列的改编权。《质量效应》是一款融入了射击、动作和科幻于一体的角色扮演游戏。游戏背景设定在宇宙范围，角色扮演中有宇宙维和部队精英维护宇宙的安宁而展开的星际冒险。据悉，男主角还有隔空取物的超能力。 曾经担任《我是传奇》、《雷神》的编剧的马克·普鲁托塞维奇将编写电影版《质量效应》的剧本。而目前斯皮尔伯格正在筹拍的《侏罗纪公园4》的剧本也是由马克负责。 据传奇影业透露，电影版《质量效应》不会照搬第一、二版的游戏，将会有全新的故事情节。而游戏《质量效应3》将在2012年3月份上市，电影版《质量效应》很有可能会沿用《质量效应3》的剧情。目前影片可以确定男主角，而且会忠于原著中男主角的特质。至于影片是否会拍成三部曲，这还要看第一部的票房反响。
