Leaked information from a survey sent out by Electronic Arts has shared new information on the story of Mass Effect: Andromeda.
Here’s are the details, which Gematsu has confirmed with an independent source in the know are accurate:
Outline
Mass Effect: Andromeda takes players to the Andromeda galaxy, far beyond the Milky Way, where players will lead the fight for a new home in hostile territory—where WE are the aliens—opposed by a deadly indigenous race bent on stopping us.
Experience the freedom to traverse and explore a planet-dense but seamless open-world galaxy, rich with discovery. Play as the leader of a squad of military-trained explorers in an intense third-person shooter, with deep progression and customization systems.
This is the story of humanity’s next chapter, and player choices throughout the game will ultimately determine our survival in the Andromeda Galaxy.
Description for a “possible future version of Mass Effect“
There is a major battle brewing, and it awaits you. It is unfolding across a galaxy of planets, with creatures and species entirely unknown. Draw your weapon, because the fighter is bigger than you thought. It’s not just for your own life, it’s for all of humanity – the ultimate battle for a place we can all call home.
Mass Effect: Andromeda is due out for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC in Q1 2017.
Thanks, NeoGAF.
