3. Mass Effect: Andromeda Looks Absolutely Huge

The show closed with gameplay footage from Mass Effect: Andromeda, which explained that your goal throughout the game is to travel the galaxy in search of a new home for humanity.

The player is able to explore a large number of hub worlds with diverse alien life and geography, and if BioWare can pull this off without it feeling like another No Man's Sky, then they could be onto something really special.

Visually, the game looks fantastic, and the gameplay looks set to inject new life into the series while still retaining the distinctive Mass Effect style that fans love so much. Get hype.
