Mass Effect: Andromeda's armor cuts off buttcheeks and other little details revealed in new character kits

BioWare has given us our closest look yet at the crew of Mass Effect: Andromeda thanks to a slew of character kits posted to the company blog. Our heroes Sara and Scott Ryder, as well as companions Cora Harper, Liam Kosta, and Peebee are all accounted for, with BioWare promising more to come.

Until then however, here's a taste of the amount of detail that's gone into making this new party of intergalactic adventurers:

I gotta say, I'm impressed with the style and attention to detail. But then, I've always admired the Mass Effect aesthetic. One thing I don't understand is why Cora has some kind of "butt window" in her armor design. It may not jump out at you looking at her overall costume, but take a look at it from the back and side and it looks especially egregious:

Some of the more talented and creative out there will no doubt want to have these handy for when you design your Andromeda cosplay. The rest of us can just enjoy some crisp, high-res pictures of the friends we'll meet on March 21.
