Last year on 7th November, also known as N7 day among Mass Effect fans, Producer Fabrice Condominas teased that a multiplayer tech test would take place for the upcoming Mass Effect: Andromeda. However, in a recent blog post, Bioware announced that it won’t be happening.
“Join us at the BioWare Base (room 2AB) and be one of the first to join APEX and defend our new home in Andromeda. Featuring different character kits each day, this is your chance to try out Mass Effect’s fast-paced cooperative multiplayer on PC,” the post reads. “While we will have live multiplayer at PAX East, there will no longer be a multiplayer tech test for players at home. Thank you to everyone who signed up. We look forward to seeing you in Andromeda.”
When PCGamer reached out to the studio for a comment, they sent the following statement: “Our team worked extremely hard building, testing, and balancing multiplayer, and we ultimately determined that a tech test would not be necessary.” The reason for the cancellation doesn’t seem very clear, but Bioware sure sounds confident about their game.
Mass Effect: Andromeda is set to release for the Windows PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 on 21st March. For pre-ordering your copy, click here.
