"Mass Effect 4" Andromeda is set for release in the first quarter of 2017 and BioWare further excites fans on what's to come by releasing the first trailer or the game series. As the release date lurks closer and closer, it is best if fans know how to make the most of the pre-release period.

According to reports, BioWare will be giving out free in-game items and players can get their hands on them today. In order to get a free Pathfinder helmet for yourself, players are required to set out and explore the "Mass Effect" Andromeda Initiative video. It is worth mentioning that players have to fulfil this requirement while they are logged in on their Origin accounts. There is even a hand progress bad to keep track of your progress as you go deeper in your exploration.

Furthermore, there is also a "Mass Effect" Andromeda trailer video that was released during the N7 Day Event. The annual event on November 7 featured the enticing trailer of the upcoming "Mass Effect" game. The video was narrated by Jien Garson, the founder of the Andromeda Initiative. The trailer is more of a briefing video to give players instructions and what to expect as they make their journey to explore the galaxy. 

It is worth mentioning that "Mass Effect 4" will be the first ever in the series to feature an open-world map, hence players can expect to have a huge galactic experience. Moreover, the massive exploration space will mean players will have several locations and secret areas to discover as they dig deeper into the epic space exploration game. 

"Mass Effect 4" will let players control the Pathfinder. The latter is a hybrid between an elite soldier, a scientist and a guide that is the sole hope of humanity in this space exploration. 

BioWare's "Mass Effect" Andromeda is expected to be released sometime between January and April 2017.  What better way to find out how far your Pathfinder will go than to have a cool Pathfinder helmet equipped as you make your journey. Make sure to get a hold of this freebie as early as possible
