E3 2015: Mass Effect Andromeda

The next installment into the Mass Effect franchise is here. Mass Effect: Andromeda looks to be everything we know and love about the Mass Effect franchise. Check out the official trailer below:

Unfortunately, we’re going to have to wait to see who’s under the armor, but this trailer will do for now.

From Aaryn Flynn, Studio General Manager, BioWare Canad and Yanick Roy, Studio Director, BioWare Montreal:

When we wrapped up the original Mass Effect trilogy with Mass Effect 3: Citadel in early 2013, planning and design on Mass Effect: Andromeda was already well underway. We knew we wanted to start with a foundation composed of the best parts of any Mass Effect game: exciting new worlds to discover, great characters, and intense action. At the same time, we clearly wanted to expand the definition of what you should expect from a Mass Effect game.

While we aren’t ready to go into too many details just yet, as you saw in the trailer and can tell by the name, this game is very much a new adventure, taking place far away from and long after the events of the original trilogy. You will play a human, male or female, though that’s actually not the character you saw in the trailer (more on that later). You’ll be exploring an all-new galaxy, Andromeda, and piloting the new and improved Mako you saw. And through it all, you will have a new team of adventurers to work with, learn from, fight alongside of, and fall in love with.

Mass Effect: Andromeda is set to release holiday 2016.
