Head into Mass Effect: Andromeda as the early access trial arrives on EA Access

So, the latest of the year’s biggest titles is just around the corner, but whilst many gamers sit in anticipation of March 21st (March 23rd for the UK) and the arrival of Mass Effect: Andromeda, those gamers who have capitalised on the great deal that is an EA Access membership will find themselves able to download the 10-hour early access trial for Mass Effect: Andromeda right now on the Xbox One.

Mass Effect: Andromeda is the latest in the epic RPG series, and is set to take players away from fan favourite Commander Shepherd for the first time. With heavy open-world elements and a large emphasis on exploration, players looking to dive into the latest space faring adventure will want to set aside the hours if they hope to explore everything Mass Effect: Andromeda has to offer.

Of course, ten hours is a long time to play a videogame and whilst it certainly won’t be enough to finish off the vast adventure available, early access players will still find themselves limited to progressing past a certain stage in the story. Multiplayer on the other hand will be fully open with everything on offer straight away. This includes character customisation and access to all game modes.

Those that delve into the vast expanses of the Milky Way during the early access period should note that all game progress, including saves, mission progress and of course character progression will carry over to the full game experience should you decide to buy, and those with the EA Access membership will benefit from 10% off with the usual EA Access savings. If you don’t have an EA Access pass, then we advise you to hit up CDKeys right now. 

Mass Effect: Andromeda will be available on March 23rd for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC and will come in three versions, Standard, Deluxe and Super Deluxe and is available for pre-order and pre-download right now.
