Playing ME:LE in "offline mode"

Hello, 

Does the game support playing in offline mode (platform doesn't matter)? It's on the steam store, and I know steam supports the offline mode, but I'm not sure if it redirects to Origin after launching. 

Cheers.

  • I can't say 100% as I don't work for Bioware/EA, but since this is a single player series/game and the old ones(even ME:Andromeda) can be played in offline mode from Origin, I don't foresee an issue playing this game offline.  It is my understanding that Steam installs will start up Origin to play the game, but you SHOULD be able to set Origin as start in offline and have it work fine.  I personally will be getting it on Origin, so I don't have to work around Steam to play, as I don't see any reason to not buy a game on the native platform for it, thus I buy Steam games such as The Elder Scrolls on Steam, FarCry on Ubisoft Connect, and will get Mass Effect on Origin.
