Mass Effect the Board Game – Priority: Hagalaz and a range of highly detailed resin miniatures are now available to pre-order at Modiphius Entertainment. This is a cooperative, story-driven game for 1-4 players designed by Eric M. Lang and Calvin Wong Tze Loon 黃子倫.

The game will retail for £40 / $50 and will be available from publisher Asmodee through friendly local gaming stores in early October, and from the Modiphius webstore. The Mass Effect miniatures range will only be available for early release via the Modiphius pre-order until they release in retail on N7 Day (November 7, 2024).

Set during the events of Mass Effect 3, the Normandy crew has one more mission. On the remote world Hagalaz, a research cruiser from the terrorist organization Cerberus has crashed directly in the path of a deadly storm. With little time before the storm hits, Shepard must lead their squad through the cruiser to uncover its sinister secrets and keep them out of the hands of the enemy. However, the ship holds more dangers than just its former crew. Deep within the shattered cruiser stir creatures and enemies far worse than the Cerberus forces that guard them.

Mass Effect the Board Game – Priority: Hagalaz is a quick to play co-operative, story-driven game for 1-4 players. A branching, narrative campaign allows for multiple playthroughs with a different experience every time. There are up to 14 missions, with the main campaign missions having Paragon/Renegade options. Card-driven enemy actions and evolving stories respond to your actions – your early choices influence later missions. Gather Shepard’s squad from a selection of teammates from the Mass Effect trilogy: Liara, Tali, Wrex, and Garrus. Customize and upgrade your squad’s abilities, equipment, and powers as they gain experience. Enhance them further by unlocking unique powers with optional loyalty missions.

The board game features six highly detailed 32mm pre-assembled plastic miniatures of male and female Shepard, Liara, Tali, Wrex, and Garrus for players to use as their game pieces.

Modiphius is also launching the Mass Effect miniatures range starting with five sets of 32mm highly detailed, collectible resin miniatures. The miniatures are available early through the Modiphius webstore pre-order to ship in October and will then hit stores on N7 Day (November 7, 2024). The miniatures can be used to upgrade the board game and are scaled to fit. The range includes:
