‘Mass Effect 4’ Hinted To Look Great And Play Great With More Information on Build And Mako
The next "Mass Effect," sometimes dubbed as "Mass Effect 4" has not really seen a number of teasers in 2014, apart from a teaser trailer and a scattering of small clues from the developer. But with the year ending, it's not impossible that 2015 may hold more information about "Mass Effect 4."
Recently, senior development director Chris Wynn had teased via Twitter that he was downloading the build of "Mass Effect 4" and that it was quite the massive game. In his teaser message, the game was big enough to make his Windows software say that it will need about one entire day to copy it.
Another member of their development team, this time producer Mike Gamble, has teased "Mass Effect 4" once again. Granted, fans should not expect too much from the newest teaser tweet, as it is more a shout out rather than laden with new information, as seen in the excerpt below.
The Mass Effect team has created a fantastic build to cap off 2014. So much diversity, so beautiful. Best Christmas present ever.

For fans who want to know more about the state of the game, however, Gamingbolt has found a statement from Bioware that suggests that "Mass Effect 4" is already playable. According to the source game designer Jos Hendriks mentioned that he is currently exploring space, while this may not necessarily be referring to "Mass Effect 4," the other information that he teases can be seen as an accessory clue, as it is about the new Mako, the vehicle seen in the first "Mass Effect" installment.
Hendriks mentions that the game is feeling excited because the game is just "rad." He then adds how he wishes the game could be complete already. Considering that all Hendriks can share about Mako is the smooth way by which he is able to explore the terrain of space, it appears that the developer is keeping a lot close to the vest with "Mass Effect 4."
There are a couple of things that have been confirmed with "Mass Effect 4," some of which had been revealed at the Mass Effect N7 Roundtable before. Polygon notes that there will be new alien races and species that will have their own ecosystem and worlds. This will not only make the depth of exploration deeper for "Mass Effect 4," but it will also grow the non-playable characters that are part of the recruit squad that players encountered in the trilogy.
If it weren't a clue before, players should also note that "Mass Effect 4" will only be focusing on next-gen systems PS4 and Xbox One, as well as the PC. If the massive build is anything to go by, then this may very well be the first clue to how big "Mass Effect 4" will be.
