Mass Effect: Andromeda: Loyalty missions are set to return

Speaking to Game Informer, Mass Effect: Andromeda Creative Director, Mac Walters, said Mass Effect 2‘s loyalty missions are set to return to the franchise.

“As a writer, one of the things I loved was the freedom to say ‘I know this character is coming along,’ so they can carry a lot of the narrative,” Walters said.

“That made my job easier, but it also made it more fun, because I could tell a more specific story in one of those missions.”

The missions can even be completed after the game’s main campaign.

“The big difference between this and ME2, where you did a loyalty mission and that all impacted the ending.

“If you don’t want to engage with them, you don’t have to. If you want engage with them after the critical path is done, you can do that.”

Andromeda is expected in Autumn 2017.
