Prior to the release of the trailer, many believed it was connected to Andromeda because of the official artwork that was released on N7 Day in the blog post announcement. Gamble also confirmed on Twitter this was 'intentional' (opens in new tab), which has also added more credence to the idea that the next adventure will be linked to Andromeda. The very first time Ryder takes off in the Tempest ship, 'godspeed' is said to be over comms, which can be heard in the trailer. Andromeda is set some 600 years after Mass Effect 3, and interestingly you can even listen to voice recordings from Liara in Andromeda - given her long life span, it would also make sense for her to still be knocking around long after Shepard. If it is, it could give us an idea of the timeframe the next adventure will take place in. There's also a lot of substantial theories around the possibility that the next is in some way tied to Mass Effect: Andromeda. Some have even been speculating that she's in fact on Earth, which may suggest that the next adventure is likely a direct sequel. There is a lot of speculation surrounding whether the area we see Liara in is in fact in the Milky Way, given that she uncovers some N7 armor. The presence of Liara is also very interesting. Gamble confirmed you do in fact see Reapers in the trailer (opens in new tab), so we're likely seeing the remnants of what was left behind after the final showdown with Shepard in Mass Effect 3. Later on, eagle-eyed fans also noticed you can spot the silhouette of a Reaper in the background as a mysterious figure (who turns out to be Liara) walks through a snowy landscape. BioWare project director Michael Gamble caused a lot of excitement when he said 'there's a lot to unpack' on Twitter (opens in new tab), and the Mass Effect fan base erupted with interesting theories and thoughts about what the trailer may be hinting at.įirstly, you can hear the very recognizable horn of a Reaper ring out during the opening sequence. Running at just under two minutes, fans were quick to dig into every second of footage shown to try and piece together what it might mean for the future of the franchise. During The Game Awards 2020, BioWare dropped the very first teaser trailer for the next Mass Effect game… and holy Liara T'Soni was it quite the trailer.
