In one of the newest cinematic trailers released for Mass Effect: Andromeda, we got more in-depth details about the story, as well as the impending drama that will unfold in the Andromeda galaxy come March. The trailer shows the members of ship Tempestย getting closer toย landing on the new planet Habitat 7- their only chance for safety and for giving humanity a new home. In the midst of being reminded that there areย 20,000 souls aboard Ark Hyperion that are โadrift at sea”, we also get a quick glimpse of salarianย Kallo Jath pilotingย starship Tempest before things take a turn for the worst and we are introduced to the villain ofย Andromeda.ย

In an attempt to get closer to the planet, Pathfinder Ryder and his team are ambushed by Kett Archon. This new and dangerous enemy wastes no time threatening Ryder and the rest of the team of Ark Hyperion, saying โsurrender of burn.โ It’s possible the idea of humans trying to colonize Habitat 7 doesn’t sit well with him.
That doesnโt stop Ryder. As the explorers gear up to head from this ship, Ryder admitsย that they’ve been “outplayed”- the Archon is a master of his game. He then promises that โweโre about to change the rulesโ as we get a good look at the members of the group- Peebee, Liam Kosta, Ryder, Lt. Harper, and a Korgan named Drack. What follows is a montage of high-action sequences that give us a glimpse into what to expect during combat in the game.

In a trailer released before this,ย we gotย a comprehensiveย look at the leading members of the human Pathfinder crew ofย Ark Hyperion, including Alec Ryder, who is the father of the seriesโ new protagonists, Scott and Sarah Ryder. Alec is the Pathfinder on Ark Hyperion, whose pioneer service history โspeaks for itselfโ. Heโs a skilled soldier with N7 ranking, as well as a talented scientist.
Other members of the teamย include Liam, who was a security specialist and has expertise in crisis response. We also have Lieutenant Cora Harper on board, who is also narrating this trailer. She is the teamโs second-in-command and is the operations specialist in charge of handling ground missions. She also spends four years serving alongside Asari commandos. Lt. Harper’s past is still fairly vague, though, and fans quickly picked up that she shares a surname with Jack Harper (The Illusive Man) from the original games and the leader of Cerberus. While her connection to the trilogy hasn’t been confirmed, it’s still best not to rule anything out.
