"Mass Effect: Andromeda" only has a few weeks before it finally touches down. The new video trailers show the Tempest which replaces Shepard's Normandy ship.

It is no secret that "Mass Effect: Andromeda" will more or less follow the same gameplay as its predecessors. The players will be able to take on missions on different planets and solar systems using a ship, which is now called the Tempest.

Unlike the Normandy, the Tempest is quite small but the new video trailer highlights its speed. It is not really a main concern for "ME" players considering that they will be mostly quick traveling from one place to another.

"Mass Effect: Andromeda" will feature the Tempest ship with the Nomad all-terrain vehicle for land transport, Game Spot has learned. Just like the Normandy, the Tempest also has bio labs and weapon stock rooms. It also features an engine room and the bridge itself where players will most likely choose their missions or locations.

There may be customization options for the Tempest in the long run. The Normandy had several modifications that players could buy or upgrade for the ship.

"Mass Effect: Andromeda" will also allow players to explore or scout the terrain they are in using the Nomad which is the replacement for the previous game's Mako. The video trailer shows the Nomad in action complete with different paint jobs and thrusters.

Players will also be able to have several romantic partners. "Mass Effect: Andromeda" producer Michael Gamble answered a question on Twitter as cited by Polygon saying that there will be "so many" banging which will also be "pretty good."


The previous "Mass Effect" video games allowed players to have romantic interests all around. However, the new installment might see a lot more including interspecies mating.

"Mass Effect: Andromeda" will be rolled out internationally on March 21. It will be available for the Xbox One, the PlayStation 4 and the PC.
