We expect ME Andromeda to run well on high end PCs. To reach recommended requirements you will need at least a GTX 670 or R9 280 GPU. If this is paired with a mid ranged Intel i5 or Phenom II AMD processor and 8GB of system memory then you should be able to play Mass Effect Andromeda at 50-65 FPS on high graphics settings and 1920×1080 screen resolution. Lower specced machines, like a GTX 650 ti or HD 6850 GPU would probably be able to get around 30 FPS at 900p resolution on low graphics settings.
Mass Effect Andromeda is the beginning of an all-new saga in the Mass Effect universe. The remnants of mankind make their way to the Andromeda galaxy in an effort to forge in new life in Bioware’s epic sci-fi RPG.

Gameplay will feature a “new and improved” version of the M35 Mako[2], the Nomad ND1, which can be customized.[29]
Branching dialogue options will continue to feature, as will Interrupts. Gone are Paragon and Renegade choices. Instead, players will make tone decisions based on four options. Emotional or Heart, Professional, Logical and Casual. The option to Investigate will still be available in appropriate situations. Interrupts will still be offered that if chosen, will result in an action being taken by the character.
The game will feature an online component, though unlike the Galaxy at War mode of Mass Effect 3, it is unlikely it will affect the main campaign in a manner similar to War Assets.[27]
