Through the official BioWare site, you can find a job application, where you are looking for an associate technical director with experience in Unreal Engine.

Although there are no more details at the moment, it is more than certain that the next Mass Effect will make use of the Unreal Engine 5 specifically. Remember that the first three titles in the series used the Epic Games engine. However, for Andromeda Y Dragon Age Inquisition the Frostbite was chosen.
On related topics, a Mass Effect series would already be in development at Amazon. However, the Dragon Age writer doesn’t think this adaptation will work.
