If it is, it could give us an idea of the timeframe the next adventure will take place in. There's also a lot of substantial theories around the possibility that the next is in some way tied to Mass Effect: Andromeda. Some have even been speculating that she's in fact on Earth, which may suggest that the next adventure is likely a direct sequel. There is a lot of speculation surrounding whether the area we see Liara in is in fact in the Milky Way, given that she uncovers some N7 armor.

The presence of Liara is also very interesting. Gamble confirmed you do in fact see Reapers in the trailer, so we're likely seeing the remnants of what was left behind after the final showdown with Shepard in Mass Effect 3. Later on, eagle-eyed fans also noticed you can spot the silhouette of a Reaper in the background as a mysterious figure (who turns out to be Liara) walks through a snowy landscape.

BioWare project director Michael Gamble caused a lot of excitement when he said "there's a lot to unpack" on Twitter, and the Mass Effect fan base erupted with interesting theories and thoughts about what the trailer may be hinting at.įirstly, you can hear the very recognizable horn of a Reaper ring out during the opening sequence. Running at just under two minutes, fans were quick to dig into every second of footage shown to try and piece together what it might mean for the future of the franchise. While I'm excited to mess around with the new AI-powered Immersive Views (I just got back from Amsterdam and would love to see how it compares to being there in person), glanceable directions seem like the most useful new feature coming to Google Maps.During The Game Awards 2020, BioWare dropped the very first teaser trailer for the next Mass Effect game… and holy Liara T'Soni was it quite the trailer. These new features look likely to make Google Maps just a bit nicer and more enjoyable to use, which is promising for Maps heads like me. I know I personally feel a lot more likely to use such trip-planning features if I'm confident Google will remember what I was planning days, weeks and months later. It's a minor change, but one that may make the feature a lot more usable for folks. Notably, the "Recents" tab in Google Maps is getting a bit better at remembering the trips you've been considering, as it will now save your Recent trips even after you close your browser. Google has been quietly rolling out advanced features (like the Google Chrome Journeys upgrade) for retracing your steps online, and now it's upgrading a similar feature in Google Maps.

Glanceable directions are also designed to work on your Android or iOS lock screen, which is what I'm especially excited about since I hate having to keep my phone on and unlocked just to use it as a GPS stand-in. You can evidently configure it so that you see a simplified view of the usual route planning interface (think address on top, map in the middle, location at the bottom) but, instead of hitting the "Directions" button and diving into the turn-by-turn guidance screen, glanceable directions keeps the map view up as you move through the route. It's basically a simplified version of the usual navigation mode that gives you simple directions (where to make your next turn) and your ETA in a very glanceable format. Now this is something I'm personally very excited about: Google is rolling out a new feature for Google Maps called glanceable directions.
