Throughout the original Mass Effect trilogy the Krogan are almost completely infertile due to the Genophage, a biological weapon designed to prevent their extremely fast ability to breed which was originally created to help put down the Krogan Rebellions. While there isn't much detail known about this concept, Mass Effect has yet to have a female Krogan companion, and there are reasons this could be a particularly interesting idea in the light of events in Mass Effect 3. One cut character was the Krogan War Queen. However, there are also plenty of characters that BioWare cut well before Mass Effect 2's retail release, and many of them would be great characters to see finally get their shot at the spotlight in Mass Effect 4.

The Cerberus Bodyguard concept would become Jacob Taylor, while the concept of the Geth Frankenstein would undergo some reworking before turning into Legion. The concept of a genetically modified "Cerberus Superwoman" whose perfection was also her main flaw would go on to become Miranda Lawson. These included some early concepts for characters that most Mass Effect fans will recognize right away. The aforementioned document provided insight into some of the earliest ideas Mass Effect 2's writers came up with for the companion characters who would accompany Commander Shepard.

While many of these character concepts didn't make it to the final game, there are a few that could be fantastic additions to Mass Effect 4, especially in light of some of the details that have been revealed about the next chapter so far.

Mass Effect 2's Lead Writer Mac Walters recently revealed some of the companion character concepts originally brainstormed for the second game in the series. The build-up to the release of the Mass Effect: Legendary Edition has seen a renewed focus on the first three games. The next game wasn't the only big news from BioWare this past year, with the announcement of the Mass Effect: Legendary Edition promising to remaster the original trilogy for release in 2021. The next chapter in the Mass Effect series-for now known as Mass Effect 4 -is on the way from BioWare, with the trailer hinting a return to the Milky Way and potentially even the return of Commander Shepard.
