6. The Game World Will Be The Biggest In Bioware History

If players hope to make full use of the newly-implemented Mako, there has to be plenty of land to travel across and explore. Bioware would have to agree, as they've updated their in-game map so that it's massive AND readily available for any explorers to drive across.

It's the natural order of games and sequels, especially when it comes to open-world games. In many developers' minds, bigger is better with open worlds, with GTA IV -> GTA V and Mafia 2 -> Mafia 3 serving as just a couple examples. Besides, Dragon Age Inquisition was certainly large in scale, but it still wasn't big enough to incorporate a fully-weaponized car with turbo boosters, leading to a clear need for more vast landscapes for Pathfinders.

Likelihood of being true: 9/10. The technology and processing power is available. The power of the Frostbite engine is at their disposal. There's no way Bioware is including the Mako if they don't plan on there being plenty of areas and world to explore. The only way that it isn't true is if they went for more density in each available area rather than massive amounts of areas with various levels of content.
