Does anyone know... Is there any chance someone else could get the rights to mass effect one day and take a shot at it? Kinda like what happened with baldurs gate 3

I imagine that EA owns the rights to Mass Effect. They could have a 5th game developed by a different studio or outsource it. If they think it would be worth the investment ME5 could definitely happen.

They just might have to totally start over.

Okay well now my dream game is a CDPR made mass effect. The odds are probably .01% but that won't stop me from hoping.

Tbh I don’t think I would trust CDPR to do it well. Cyberpunk is great and all but they have never made that kind of straightforward narrative third person shooter game. They make open world games, and that’s not Mass Effect. They also have never implemented a conversation system with serious effects on in-game outcomes the way Paragon/Renegade was done before. Cyberpunk in particular had very few decisions which had any effect on the game other than what was effectively flavor text.
