Thus far EA has only really committed to a Q1 2017 release, with more info expected on Mass Effect Day (November 7).
Releasing towards the end of March 2017 would give the space RPG a bit of breathing room following the March 3 release of Horizon Zero Dawn, and the March 7 release of Ubisoft’s Ghost Recon: Wildlands.
The first gameplay from Andromeda was revealed last month during the announcement of the PS4 Pro.
