After years of hints and teases, Mass Effect: Andromeda was formally announced during EA’s E3 press conference earlier this year, and is currently slated to come to PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in 2016. While little is known about the game right now, Bioware has confirmed that no characters from the original trilogy will make an appearance.
