Bioware Confirms Unlimited 10-Hour EA/Origin Access Trial For ‘Mass Effect: Andromeda’ Only For Multiplayers

Single gamers who would play “Mass Effect: Andromeda” using the 10-hour EA/Origin Access trial could lay all they want. However, since the trial is gated, after a certain point, they could no longer continue. To go on, they could explore or restart.

Unlimited Access Standard. However, it is a different case for multi-players who could use the 10-hour EA/Origin Access trial for “Mass Effect: Andromeda” all they want, Bioware producer Fernando Melo tweets. The unlimited access to multi-players is a standard for EA/Origin Access trials, GameSpot explains. It would be available on March 16 for PC and Xbox One, five days before the release of “Mass Effect: Andromeda” on March 21.

The 10-hour EA/Origin Access trial would not be available on PlayStation 4. Bioware announced the release date at the CES 2017. The single-player and multiplayer could opt to spend their time in either mode or divide their focus between the two modes, Tech Times reports. Melo adds those who would use the multiplayer mode could unlock Pathfinder Rewards or loot boxes that could unlock new materials and items.

2 Loot Boxes. There is the Gold Item Loot and the Research Data Loot. The Gold item Loot for the 10-hour EA/Origin Access trial users likely contain money and equipment. The Research Data Loot likely has data that could be used for crafting or upgrading gear and items. Some of the rewards from multiplayer mode could be brought over to the single-player campaign of the user and vice-versa, Melo says.

Eurogamer which tested the 10-hour EA/Origin Access trial of “Mass Effect: Andromeda” in February was impressed by the game’s opening. He notes there is a straightforward path through the mission, but it is set across a fairly wide area. He hints of a lot of distractions if the player wanders off the beaten path as well as several side missions to perform.
