Here's what Mass Effect: Andromeda's bad guys look like

澳擲幸čæ5å¼å„å·ē åå²ę„询:Mass Effect: Andromeda takes place a galaxy away from the Reapers and Cerberus*, which means it needs some new villains. The 澳擲幸čæ5å¼å„å·ē åå²ę„询:N7 day reveal trailer gave us a few sideways glances at the antagonistic alien race known as the Kett š°and a new video from finally shows them handlebar-head-on.
The Kett are meant to look distinct from the Milky Way species you're already familiar with, Mass Effect Andromeda art director Joel MacMillan explains in the video: sleek, geometric forms are out and craggy, bony bodies are in. But ešÆven with all the bone plates, the Kett still have to look familiar enough to promote empathy when the story calls for it. Take a look at the final design for one member of the species and see wš hat you think.
Still wondering what the deal is with that giant basketball hoop on the back of that one Kett's head? Prominent hš¤Ŗead crests are a unifāying element for the diverse species, MacMillan noted.
"He's got that big, kind of collar piece that winds around the back of his head," MacMillan said. "All the creatures that you might see in the Kett have a very similar feature to that. It's something that āwe played on as a consistent motif or a consistent element across that lineup."
*Oh dang, I bet Cerberus sš °nuck some moles into the Andromeda Initiative and they're going to mess stuff up for all of itꩵs cross-species efforts.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I received there was from CM Life, its studentšÆ-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously beą¶£en a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
