The next 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Mass Effect game has a new teaser to mark N7 Day, and it's a head-scratcher. So far, all we have to go on is five seconds of someone walking down a hallway, and a brief message that mentions the Andromeda galaxy. Still, it's enough for us to speculate on what the sequel will be about, and if these clues are anything to go by, then we're likely looking at a very Liara-heavy story.
This teaser was found through a secret message on this year's N7 Day blog post, which when translated, reads the word, "EPSILON". This is the fifth letter in the Greek alphabet, and this would be the fifth Mass Effect game. This is significant, as it confirms that BioWare considers this to be Mass Effect 5, rather than 4, and therefore, continuing from 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Andromeda.
Some had taken to calling this mysterious sequel "Mass Effect 4", either because the last numbered game in the series was Mass Effect 3 - or because they'd rather pretend Andromeda never happened. This teaser strongly suggests that BioWare will not be doing the latter, as not only is Epilson the fifth letter of the alphabet, but the hosting the trailer also mentions a distress signal detected in the Andromeda galaxy. Perhaps this game will finally wrap up some of the loose ends left behind when Andromeda was abandoned.
Alright, Greek word aside, what the hell are we supposed to make of this 🀅new trailer? Well, bear with me here - I think the person in the teaser is Liara.
We still have no idea what the next Mass Effect game will be called. But given today's news, the best placeholder is Mass Effect 5, not Mass Effect 4.
I have a few reasons for thinking this. Firstly, it matches the dark outfit we 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:briefly saw he𓃲r in during the first teaser. Secondly, there's a transcript of an audio file shared alongside the trailer, reading, "Although they should know by now not to underestimate human [redacted]." This matches an audio file BioWare shared last year, in which Liara could be heard saying exactly that. And if you were wondering, the redacted part was "defiance". That sounds about right.
So, if we're taking bets, then I reckon this teaser shows Liara marching down a hallway, about to show the council something that won't make them very happy. Given the geth noises we can hear, it may be AI-related. We know that Alec Ryder, the player character's father in Andromeda, was interested in AI for the sake of giving humanity a boost, so it's possible that this is how it will all tie together.
In the meantime, we wait. The next obvious opportunity for BioWare to give us mo🐎re Mass Eff💞ect news would be The Game Awards, so we might get a proper trailer on December 7.
