Netflix's hit series The Witcher is the latest production to shut down due to multiple positive COVID-19 tests. Reported by Deadline, there are four positive coronavirus cases among the on-set crew for The Witcher and Netflix is now doing an "isolated round of testing of everyone involved in the show." None of those impacted are from the core cast -- including Henry Cavill, Anya Chalotra, and Freya Allan -- and those who've been affected have been isolated. Once it's safe to resume production, Netflix will get the Season 2 cameras rolling again for the show at Arborfield Studios, near London. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=live-action-versions-of-video-game-characters&captions=true"] The Witcher series showrunner Lauren S. Hissrich offered up the following statement on Twitter, saying "We Witchers are okay."

Hey, the world is turned upside down — so thanks for the love and support for our little corner of it. We Witchers are okay. The health and safety of our crew and their families come first, and we will do whatever we need to do to protect them. We’ll be back soon. Xx

The Witcher's second season had just swapped over to in-studio filming due to England entering a new month-long lockdown on Thursday in response to a recent surge in coronavirus cases. Season 2 had started filming again this past August after the shoot was initially suspended back in March when Witcher actor actor Kristofer Hivju tested positive for COVID-19 and Netflix paused filming on all of its films and TV shows in response to the pandemic. Netflix is also working on The Witcher: Blood Origin, a six-part spin-off prequel series set 1,200 years before Geralt walked the lands of the Northern Kingdoms. The Witcher: Season 2 is currently set for 2021.

Dark Horse Direct is teaming with BioWare for a new lineup of Mass Effect collectibles, and IGN has your exclusive first look at everything being revealed during the 2020 N7 Day promotion. Check out the slideshow gallery below to see some drool-worthy art prints, a handy set of bookends and even a scale-model replica of the Alliance Normandy SR-1: [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=mass-effect-fans-can-finally-own-the-alliance-normandy-sr-1&captions=true"] The Mass Effect Character Prints Portfolio features the artwork of Matt Taylor, an artist you might recognize from countless Mondo movie posters. Each of the four included prints showcases a different character from one of Dark Horse's Mass Effect tie-in comics - Liara T’Soni from Mass Effect: Redemption, The Illusive Man from Mass Effect: Evolution, Aria T’Loak from Mass Effect: Invasion and Garrus Vakarian from Mass Effect: Foundation. The set also comes with a digital download code for the Mass Effect: The Complete Comics collection. The Mass Effect Character Prints Portfolio is limited to 250 copies and is priced at $125.00. The set is expected to ship sometime in December 2020 or January 2021. The Alliance Normandy SR-1 Replica is a scale-model resin statue of the iconic ship, designed by Gentle Giant Studios. It measures 14-inches long and 5.6-inches wide. The statue is limited to 500 units and is priced at $249.99, with a late 2021 release window. Finally, the Paragon & Renegade Bookends set is ideal for anyone who wants to display physical copies of the various Mass Effect comics. Each bookend measures 8.5-inches tall and 4.25-inches wide. The bookend set is limited to 1000 units and is priced at $99.99 and will ship at some point in Summer 2021. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2019/02/12/bioware-definitely-not-done-with-mass-effect"] All three collectibles are available to pre-order now on the Dark Horse Direct website. In other Mass Effect/N7 Day news, BioWare has finally confirmed a remaster of the original Mass Effect Trilogy. Mass Effect Legendary Edition is slated for release in Spring 2021. VP, Studio GM of BioWare Casey Hudson said that the team at BioWare's goal "was not to remake or reimagine the original games, but to modernize the experience so that fans and new players can experience the original work in its best possible form." Hudson also confirmed "a veteran team has been hard at work envisioning the next chapter of the Mass Effect universe." That project is still in its early stages, but hopefully we'll learn more next year.

The following month, a 'Mass Effect Legendary Edition' was rated in South Korea. Be sure to check back with IGN to find out whether or not a Mass Effect Trilogy rerelease is truly in the cards.

In honor of N7 day (November 7, get it?), PC case maker NZXT is launching a Mass Effect-themed limited edition version of its H510i PC case – which, in our opinion, is one of the best PC cases out there. The case, which will be limited to 500 units, takes design inspiration from Shepard's iconic N7 armor with a carbon fiber body and red and white color stripe, and comes with a flippable Paragon/Renegade charm. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=nzxt-mass-effect-h510i-limited-edition-case&captions=true"] In the gallery above, check out some exclusive photos of the case outfitted with a full build and Paragon/Renegade/Neutral lighting.

BioWare has confirmed that a new Mass Effect game is in development. Announced on N7 Day alongside the news that the long-awaited Mass Effect: Legendary Edition will arrive in 2021, this new game will feature a "veteran team" from BioWare and will be the "next chapter of the Mass Effect universe." While BioWare isn't sharing any more details about this new project, it did share an image that gives a tease of the future of Mass Effect. While this project may be far away, the Mass Effect Legendary Edition will be arriving on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC in Spring 2021. It will also have "forward compatibility and targeted enhancements on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5." The Mass Effect: Legendary Edition gathers together all the single-player base content and DLC from Mass Effect, Mass Effect 2, and Mass Effect 3, and all promo weapons, armors, packs, all remastered and optimized for 4K Ultra HD. Mass Effect was first released on Xbox 360 in 2008 and began an epic trilogy where your choices mattered and would carry with you through the next two games. Mass Effect 2 was released in 2010 and Mass Effect 3 ended the story in 2012.

BioWare also released Mass Effect: Andromeda in 2017 and too the series in a different direction and went away from the story of Commander Shepard. We placed Mass Effect at #57 and Mass Effect 2 at #36 in our list of the Top 100 Games of All Time, and soon many more people will be able to play the trilogy in a modern way.
