The only significant Mass Effect: Andromeda gameplay we’ve seen was that 4K tech video shared during Sony’s PlayStation 4 Pro unveiling event. So of course, the promise of new gameplay at The Game Awards 2016 was exciting enough to make watching the whole show worth it for fans.

BioWare has released a lengthy gameplay trailer, which runs almost five minutes long and can be seen below. It sets up the story briefly, and covers various things like vehicles, exploration, dialogue, resources, and of course, combat. Oh, and big scary creatures you’re probably going to want to travel around when exploring. Far, far around. You know what, maybe it’s better to go in an entirely different direction. That tree over there looks pretty!
