The developers behind "Mass Effect: Andromeda" has caught many avid fans off-guard when they released early access earlier than expected. Several sources claim that the game can now be played on Xbox One and PC as of yesterday.

According to GameSpot, EA/Origin Access subscribers can enjoy a 10-hour trial for "Mass Effect: Andromeda." This has come as a surprise to many since the game's official release date is still several days away.

Initially, "mass Effect: Andromeda" is slated for released on March 21 in North America, however, thanks to the EA/Orin Access, some players get to enjoy the space exploration game before everyone else.

The said Early Access trial for "Mass Effect: Andromeda" started on March 15 and it happened right under everyone's noses. Because of the fact that the early access trial for the game came out in a rather sneaky yet surprising way, very few fans were able to jump on board for early space exploration.

In light of EA/Origin Access subscription, it is a great opportunity that has nearly all major EA-published games available for early access. Subscribers can play games five days before its slated release date similar to how some players have access to "Mass Effect: Andromeda" today. These benefits will cost players about $5/month and some may opt for a $30/year subscription package.

For those players who have already burned through their 10-hour preview of "Mass Effect: Andromeda," only a few days remain before the game is released worldwide. PCGamesN reports that there will be two release dates for the highly-anticipated game.

Players from Canada, Latina America, Mexico, Russia, South East Asia, and the USA who are eagerly waiting for "Mass Effect: Andromeda" to go live will have their wishes granted on March 21, 2017. The game will go live at 9 pm (PDT), March 20, 1 am (ART), March 21, 7 am (MSK) March 21, while Korea will be live at 00:00 local time on March 21.
