'Mass Effect: Andromeda' release date, news: Devs release details on special editions and preorder deals

"Mass Effect: Andromeda" is still a few months away from being released, but preorder deals and special edition offers are already revealed. Preorders come with several freebies to lure players into getting a copy ahead of the official release.

Preorders of whatever edition of the game, whether it is for standard, deluxe or special deluxe editions, will come with a free Deep Space Explorer Armor — an equipment that promises to "stand up to anything a brand new galaxy can dish out," a Multiplayer Booster Pack that includes five sets of 50 percent XP boosters, and Nomad Skin. Preorders for the Standard Edition costs $69.90.

Players who will preorder the Deluxe Edition of "Mass Effect: Andromeda" have a longer list of freebies including the ones that are mentioned above. Deluxe Edition preorders will come with Pathfinder Casual Outfit as a replacement outfit that playable characters can change into while relaxing at their ship called Tempest, Scavenger Armor, and Pathfinder Elite Weapon Set that will let players use and own a unique set of weapons.

Players who preorder the "Mass Effect: Andromeda" Deluxe Edition for $89.90 will not journey into space lonely. They will get space monkey companion Pet Pyjak, entire Digital Soundtrack of the game, and the Multiplayer Deluxe Launch Pack that has weapons and equipment to give players a good head start from anyone else in the co-op mode.

Finally, a preorder of the Super Deluxe Edition of "Mass Effect: Andromeda" will not only give players everything that Standard and Deluxe Editions have, but they will also get the Multiplayer Super Deluxe Booster Packs that will give a 20-week long access to their own co-op play with Premium Packs to continuously boost their game progress.

The specific release date of "Mass Effect: Andromeda" is yet to be announced by developer BioWare and publisher Electronic Arts (EA). The two companies have been very quiet about it, however, other companies are not. In two separate occasions, Amazon leaks suggested that the game will hit the shelves on March 21, 2017.
