Mass Effect: The Board Game – Priority: Hagalaz is a new cooperative, story-driven game from publisher Modiphius Entertainment set during the events of Mass Effect 3 (2012). The studio making this tabletop experience has lots of experience with science-fiction-inspired board games such as Fallout: Factions, Homeworld TTRPG, and Dune: Adventures in the Imperium.

According to the official press release, this 1-4 player story-driven board game starts on the Normandy and sees players collaborating together in a fight against the Reapers. The final product is set to include 32 mm scale pre-assembled plastic miniatures of a male and female Shepard, as well as Garrus, Liara, Tali, and Wrex. This story is told across 3-5 chapters and plays 45-60 minutes per each chapter.

From the news release:

A branching, narrative campaign allows for multiple playthroughs with a different experience every time. Card-driven AI 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 […]. Customise 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 game is set to be distributed by Asmodee later in 2024. As of now, there is no pricing information. Fans can get updates by signing up for the newsletter on the official website.
