In a recent interview with Official Xbox Magazine Mass Effect: Andromeda's creative director Mac Walters has suggested a Project Scorpio (Microsoft's upgraded console expected later this year) version of the game could well be a possibility.
When asked if Mass Effect: Andromeda could expect a similar level of enthusiasm or support for Project Scorpio as the PS4 Pro enhancements, Walters answered: "Given our Spring release date, I'm not sure exactly what we're going to be able to support at that time, but we have a strong service plan for ME that will continue past our release date." Crucially, he adds that, "if we do a Game of the Year edition, or a future edition or something like that, that's something we'd definitely consider looking at, for sure."
Previously, producer Michael Gamble had said there were "no plans right now"when asked about a Scorpio version. It does seem to mainly be a timing issue right now, as obviously the Scorpio won't exist until a long time after Mass Effect: Andromeda's release, but Walter's comments fuel a little hope that we could eventually see a Scorpio enhanced GOTY edition later on.
