Mass Effect 4: 12 Brand New Features You Need To Know About

3. New Ship Is Called The Tempest

Goodbye to the Normandy, and hello to the Tempest - your new cross-galaxy travel ship of choice for the next adventure.

Although it's already been noted that the ship is fully customisable with a huge array of weaponry and armour, not being able to change the name itself must be for the sake of something story-related. Either through dialogue exchanges or world design, Bioware locking this one thing down just has to mean something.

One of the coolest moments in the previous trilogy (and gaming history) was the emergence of the second Normandy after Cerberus revived it, and with any luck whatever ceremonial introduction they give to the Tempest will be just as impactful.

After all, what good is a legendary Captain without their suitably badass ship?
