The video is designed to show off the PS4 Pro and EA's Frostbite engine. The environment and characters are a clear step up from the original Mass Effect trilogy -- there's more detail in the world, giving it a greater sense of depth and believability. At the two minute mark the teaser is interrupted with a cutscene, which shows your complete crew discussing a star map. They're quickly interrupted by some alarming "power levels" which turn out to be, you guessed it, some now not so innocent aliens. Typical.

All told, it's a beautiful tease. "Early 2017" can't come soon enough.
