Mass Effect 3 will mark the ostensible end of Bioware’s multi-million selling series on March 6, 2012. If that release date wasn’t close enough, Bioware is releasing copies of the game early to a select few people in New York, Las Vegas, San Francisco, London, Paris, and Berlin. The catch? They’re tied to weather balloons.

Luckily for fans, Bioware has enabled GPS tracking of the balloons on their website. Now the only thing you’ll have to worry about is fighting off that rabid fan with a shotgun.

As icing on this “Mass-ive” cake, Bioware has just released a new teaser trailer for the game, which you can view right here.
