Capcom has announced that “The Art of Remember Me” from Dark Horse is available for pre-order. Pricing varies from $39.99 to $24.68 depending on retailer.

Mass Effect has spawned a number of comic mini-series, but at Emerald City Comic Con this weekend, Dark Horse confirmed the first ongoing series set in the BioWare universe. Destructoid reports Mass Effect: Foundation is being written by Mac Walters, the lead writer on Mass Effect 3, and will tie-in with the upcoming Citadel DLC. The first issue goes on sale on July 24.

Dark Hose and Square Enix have teamed up to deliver a prequel comic for Crystal Dynamics’ new Tomb Raider game. Called Tomb Raider: The Beginning, the comic was penned by the game’s writer, Rhianna Pratchett, and Destructoid reports pre-orders at US Best Buy stores will score a hardcover version for free. This isn’t Lara’s first go-round with comics; Top Cow produced a Tomb Raider comic series which began in the late 1990′s and ran for 50 issues, as well as spawning crossovers with Witchblade and Fathom.

Tomb Raider is due on PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in early March.

Just a reminder that Dragon Age: Those Who Speak arrives in comic stores on August 22. The latest mini-series spun from BioWare’s fantasy RPG setting follows the adventures of Alistair, Isabela and Varric in the Tevinter homelands, and is a follow up to The Silent Grove. It’s been written by series lead David Gaider which makes it canonical – so I hope you didn’t kill off the cheeky ginger king in Dragon Age: Origins. The comic series is releasing at an odd time – or is it? A fresh batch of Dragon Age 3 rumours suggest we may be approaching an announcement. Hello, yes pwease.

Thanks, GameInformer.

The extra DLC options for Mass Effect 3 pre-orders continue today with the announcement of Dark Horse’s “Art of the Mass Effect Universe” book. If you pre-order the art collection through Barnes and Noble, you’ll receive download code for character boosters and a Collector Assault Rifle for multiplayer. Here’s the word on the rifle: “The Collector Assault Rifle uses the same principles as a human assault rifle, but its organic components clearly set it apart. Its power source appears to be an internal organ with biotic capacitance; its ammunition resembles pellets of metallic enamel that strip shields off enemies with deadly efficiency.” So, there you have it. Mass Effect 3 is out in March.

BioWare and Dark Horse have teamed up again to offer a new Mass Effect comic. This one is called Mass Effect: Homeworlds and includes plenty of commando type James Vega, a new addition to the cast in Mass Effect 3. The comic arrives in April after the third game hits PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in March. Hit up Kotaku for a couple of images.

All Roads, a 48 page graphic novel which tells the story of events leading up to Fallout: New Vegas, is now available through Dark Horse Digital. You can grab the comic for $3 directly from Dark Horse or through the App Store.

The comic was originally bundled with the game’s collector’s edition, and was written by Obsidian’s Chris Avellone.

Thanks, RipTen.
