Launch day for one of the most-anticipated games of 2012 is approaching, as BioWare’s Mass Effect 3 will hit the shelves on March 6th in North America.

And if gamers weren’t excited enough for the game, now we have a brand new launch trailer to make us wish it was Tuesday already.

The new trailer features new footage, and is probably the best trailer to come out of their camp yet. It definitely beats the live-action TV trailer that debuted earlier this week.

Without further ado, check it out below:

Not everyone will survive. An ancient alien race, known only as “Reapers”, has launched an all-out invasion leaving nothing but a trail of destruction in their wake. Earth has been taken, the galaxy is on the verge of total annihilation, and you are the only one who can stop them. The price of failure is extinction.

Is this launch trailer as overdramatic as that promotional copy? You bet. Is is a bit overwrought? Probably. Do we care? Absolutely not.

Like I said before, the game is releasing on Tuesday, March 6th. Gamestop is holding thousands of midnight release parties, where fans will be able to interact with the dev team via global stream.

Did you catch the promotional Twitter hashtag flashed at the end of the trailer? #TakeEarthBack has folks excited:
