The new 'Mass Effect' game is finally here - here's what you should know before jumping in
The "Mass Effect" series is beloved by millions, both hardcore gamers and casual players alike.
It's a space opera like no other in video games; it shares more in common with the "Star Wars" films than it does with other game franchises.

The original trilogy followed the exploits of Commander Shepard, a player-created character who was shaped by your actions in-game. The male version is seen above (center), but you could also play a female version of Shepard.
Unfortunately, when the credits rolled on "Mass Effect 3," the story was over: No more space opera, no more tales of heroic Commander Shepard.
That's where "Mass Effect: Andromeda" comes in.
