9. Mass Effect: Andromeda

Footage by Keith Ballard

The latest installment in the Mass Effect series, this Action/RPG takes place in the year 2185 when a coalition of human and alien races in the Milky Way forms the Andromeda Initiative with the goal of settling the Andromeda Galaxy in massive spaceships called Arks. You choose to play as either Scott or Sara Ryder, human pathfinders that wake up after 600 years of cryosleep to a new planet that may not be as viable for colonization as they once thought. You’ll be able to customize your character’s design and playable skills to create a unique playthrough experience each time you pick this game up. While there’s only one ending in this game, many of the choices you make as you interact with characters (including everyone’s favorite missions to romance the aliens), will have an effect on how everything plays out in the game.
