Familiar Mass Effect species will return in future games!

All of the information we know so far about the new Mass Effect Andromeda has been amazing. However, there is certainly some concerns from players: not all the familiar Mass Effect species and races will appear in the new game! However, creative director of the game, Mac Walters has assured fans that they will surely return in future installments of the Mass Effect franchise! The studio has created the IP in such a way that it will show up, just not in this game for some obvious reasons, Walters shared.

One notable Milky Way race that is suspected to be playing a great part in Andromeda is the Krogan, despite not having a proper ride. A Krogan squaddie called Drack was presented in a poll a Redditor claimed he had voted in, before the reveal of Mass Effect Andromeda. Also, the Krogan was clearly visible in the trailer of the game from E3 2015.

If we think about it carefully, the absence of other non-Ark races such as Turian, Asari, and most notably human from Andromeda is kind of obvious, and should be expected. After all, this new game takes place in a new galaxy, and developers wouldn’t just plug and play what is already presented in the old galaxy. If we were to put in familiar Mass Effect species and races, like Hanar, Volus, etc. it would take away BioWare’s intention of starting a new setting. Of course, they have decided this chance to expand on the Krogan, because the race is popular enough, and it makes sense to touch more on the race here!

Familiar Mass Effect species will definitely return!

We have words from BioWare that the familiar Mass Effect species will definitely return in future games. So for Andromeda, just enjoy the ride in a new setting. Also, the developer has already said that he original trilogy will not impact the new game. So, new players can start on this game as well!
