For those hoping to get lost in the vast universe of Bioware's Mass Effect: Andromeda this year, sadly it's going to be awhile longer.
An EA financial presentation (via Neogaf) featured Chief Financial Officer Blake Jorgensen confirming a Q4 release date, which will take it to early 2017. We hadn't heard much about it, other than it was playable, but that was only in-house.
"We have our Mirror's Edge runner game this first quarter, and then we have Mass Effect, which is a sci-fi action game, in our fourth quarter. So big year ahead and we're pretty excited."
While that is certainly a bummer, Jorgensen did try and shine a light on what EA has coming down the pike for this year.
"We've got a great year ahead. We've got our Battlefield first-person shooter game coming in the third quarter, and our third-party title that Respawn, our partner, built, it's called Titanfall. It's the second title that they brought into that brand," he said. "Both of those are first-person shooters and will be targeted around the fast, action-driven shooter market, as well as the strategy-driven market in that quarter..."
It is a pretty strong lineup for them just on Battlefield and Titanfall 2 alone, but hopefully, Andromeda doesn't get any further delays.
