Probably "no" on all fronts, though I'd prefer a "yes".

Yeah, there's news. The people that made Andromeda 1 largely have disbanded from BioWare and spread out to other companies either in EA or the rest of the industry.

The funniest thing about Andromeda is that the very few interesting arcs that the game had were left with an obvious sequel bait. And this left the vanilla game with almost no interesting story, which became one of the resons why MEA failed. Well played, BioWare! i heard they planning to cover it all up in the upcoming novel.

I wish nothing else but to be wrong. but let's face it - the chances of ME revival are very slim. And even if it will be reborn - who said tehy won't just restart the whole thing? Of all games, MEA is the least liked one.

Is there be a 2nd game for Andromeda and will it be with EA ??
Will we ever find out who killed Garson, Who is the benefactor is ? I said this in another thread, this seems to be the most important thing to most people when they talk about Andromeda. Who is the benefactor? This wasn't even part of the main storyline, the benefactor is basically the Shadow Broker of Andromeda. The fact that this is what people are focused on says a lot about the strength of the main story of the game. But to answer the question. I doubt we'll see an Andromeda II, even if they do continue the series. If they didn't think the market was there for DLC, I doubt they turn around five years later and say there's a big enough market for an entirely new game continuing that same story. As soon as they would even talk about it, the first things that will come to a lot of people's minds are the negatives. Andromeda as a brand is associated with a causing a studio to be shutdown, causing the series to put on hiatus, having the plug pulled with no DLC, the memes, the animations. Too many negatives, it would be a risk for EA to say the least. At least after the ME3 endings, they put out some good DLC that changed perceptions, so when people look back at ME3 they're left on a good with the Citadel DLC. The bad taste wasn't just left lingering out there like it was with Andromeda.

The bad taste wasn't just left lingering out there like it was with Andromeda. To me there question is still up in the air, for yes they didn't think the market was there for DLC. The thing is that it was six months after the release before they stopped, so if they had fixed the game faster or didn't need as many fixes we might have gotten some. The problem with judging purely on the lack of DLC is that interest in DLC wanes after time and since they didn't release any after launch it could be people moved on faster.

To answer one of your questions. It will be made by EA or not at all for EA owns Mass Effect. This. I'd say more Mass Effect as some point is highly likely but I think it'll take quite a while. Whether it continues the last story is more of an open question.

The problem with judging purely on the lack of DLC is that interest in DLC wanes after time and since they didn't release any after launch it could be people moved on faster. I would agree if they hadn't re-released the demo, did a marketing campaign with Nvidia, and put out the survey again asking if you would recommend the current game to friend or family member. They were testing the waters and trying to rebrand the game. It obviously didn't work. I don't think they ever even announced the winners in the Andromeda contest they were running. That's my main point, Andromeda as a brand is not good. The first thing that's going to come to a lot of peoples' minds is something negative. They won't be able to count on huge pre-order and launch sales.

I'd say, if they are going to continue the franchise, it will be ME:A2 as anything set in the Milky Way would require such a serious ass-pull on BioWare's part they may permanently injure themselves. Andromeda is perfectly set up for continuing the Mass Effect franchise, they just need to put in the effort to make it great like the original trilogy. I'm guessing you see something within 5 years after DA4 is released.

I think sadly at this point its more likely Bioware will be dead and buried soon, by EA. Theres already doubts and huge pressure on Anthem after the MEA and especially EAs Battlefront 2 loot box fiascos, and it might crumble down on its own weight, if the game somehow just doesnt catch that lightning in the jar it needs. The game also doesnt seem to be what Bioware fans want, its not a huge story with multiple paths and memorable characters, its EAs monetization dream "Destiny killer"(tough that now means nothing since Destiny franchise seemingly killed itself, gj Bungie). The good will also seems to dwindle, many people except the most hardcore fans feel that Bioware simply isnt what they used to know anymore. So whether it survives or not i have my doubts of the future. Ofc anything is possible, but...

I'm guessing you see something within 5 years after DA4 is released. Agreed. Only way MW would be feasible imo is a retcon of the ending (would refuse to buy), canonizing an ending ( again will refuse to buy) or a prequel during the Prothean Empire(might buy that one.)

Huh, it's even worse then. Seeing how Mass Effect franchise ended up in the same box as Dead Space, i can guarantee those story arcs will never be completed. Well played BioWare![2] Considering both Bioware and EA have stated that they have interest in making more Mass Effect games (this was said after MEA came out btw), they aren't done yet. Most likely after Anthem comes out and Dragon Age 4 is in deep production we will hear them hinting at working on another Mass Effect game. Yes, this is true but don't count on it being a continuation of MEA. The decision to pull the plug so early is very telling. They could have been releasing a major expansion that included the Quarian Ark as well as dealing with many of the loose ends with minimal financial investment and enough core fans to make it profitable. That they didn't says they had no faith in the longer view of building the player base. Expect a reboot of the OT...or for them to canonize the ending of the OT and continue in the MW. And for the record I don't necessarily agree, this is more the pragmatist in me.

And for the record I don't necessarily agree, this is more the pragmatist in me. I don’t see the lack of DLC as evidence for them not continuing their in Andromeda. This is due to the situation Bioware was in when it came to that. Bioware Montreal was being merged into Motive Studios so they couldn’t develop DLC since all hands on deck to get other games like Battlefront II ready. Bioware Austin is busy supporting and developing content for SWTOR so didn’t have enough to develop DLC. Then finally Bioware Edmonton is devoted to developing Anthem, with those who aren’t developing DA4. So overall, they didn’t create DLC not because they didn’t want to but because they couldn’t. If they do instead of a MEA2 do something like you suggest, it is just as risky a venture if not more so. There are loads of people, myself included, who wouldn’t buy a reboot or a ME4 that canonized the Shepard Trilogy. Plus practically, it would be wiser to continue in Andromeda and use what they put in place.

To answer your title question - No, there has not been any news about Mass Effect Andromeda 2. Anything else being said is just speculation.
