'Mass Effect 4: Andromeda' release date, plot rumors: New characters, new maps, customizable Mako included in the upcoming game

Fans have been waiting for more information about the upcoming "Mass Effect 4: Andromeda." The latest title has been the subject of numerous rumors and speculations, in which most of them have not been confirmed by the game publisher, Electronic Arts or EA. New reports suggest that the upcoming installment will be more of a spin-off than a sequel.

BioWare's Michael Gamble said that the next installment of the highly regarded video game will feature a customizable Mako according to the character of the player.

"We're playing around with a bunch of different physics for the Mako," Gamble said.

"The thing that we have to do is make sure it's as responsive as possible. We've learned a thing or two over the years. In terms of customization, it's been something that we've been looking at for sure, because we feel as though if you're going to be spending a lot of time in vehicles in places, they should reflect you as a player."

The new "Mass Effect 4: Andromeda" will also be the first installment in the franchise that has the multiplayer mode. Many fans are anxious how the game will turn out considering the major changes the developer and its publisher has done to it.

The new game will also feature new characters and new maps and all new characters. It is said that most of the changes made are actually requested by the fans themselves, who wanted to see more twist of the game.

Meanwhile, the creative director of "Mass Effect 4: Andromeda," Mac Walters, said through the Bioware's Official Blog that the team wants to bring back the adventure of the game.

"We're working to bring back some of that wonder and sense of exploration that we had in the original trilogy," told Walters.

Although the company has yet to provide specific details regarding the release date, the "Mass Effect 4: Andromeda" is already slated to come out in 2017.
