Mass Effect Andromeda Early Gameplay Footage Leaked

On April 1, most gamers know to be suspicious of any big news, but every once in a while, a major piece of content gets an unofficial news update, and this year was no different.  Shinobi602, a gaming news insider and longtime fan of Mass Effect,  posted on Twitter about the footage and included a link to YouTube, but the linked video was quickly removed at EA’s request, which all but confirmed the legitimacy of the leak. A blogger on AllGamesDelta posted the video there, containing footage of an early build for the night anticipated title, which can be seen here.
The footage features environmental effects like rain, some cinematic footage with a Krogan and a human in a standoff, explosion effects, and perhaps most exciting, a jet pack.  While it’s not terribly long, and no in-game sound was included, the footage was the first gameplay content that has been revealed, and fans who have been patiently waiting are sure to be excited at this refreshing glimpse of Andromeda.
The latest installment in the Mass Edfect universe is expected to release in early 2017, with a major reveal expected at E3 this June.  Let us know what you think of the footage in the comments below.
