Mass Effect: Andromeda – everything we know so far

It's been four years since Canadian studio Bioware seemingly closed out its science fiction RPG series Mass Effect with one of the most controversial (or as some put it, "disappointing") endings in video game history. Next March, however, the beloved series is returning, with a brand-new cast and setting, and some interesting new design features. Coming two years after the developer's acclaimed Dragon Age: Inquisition, it's likely Andromeda will draw on a lot of the ideas and systems from that game, as well as from the Mass Effect canon. But what do we actually know about the next title? Mass Effect has often been beautiful, but it's never looked so much like an actual, modern-day sci-fi movie as Andromeda does in the trailers.
