Mass Effect 5 teaser trailer
And a fascinating trailer on where we go next (though it could be some while).

With the voiceovers suggesting Humanity's first contact and the character at the end picking up an N7 badge, it gives me the impression they're abandoning Andromeda and going back to the Milky Way, possibly even a prequel. Just speculation but definitely not what I would want (though plenty of the fanboys would).
Given that the Andromeda galaxy is shown in the teaser and one the Arks is referenced (Ark 6) I would say smart money is on a game that does reference Andromeda and that is set a good while (perhaps centuries) after Mass Effect 3.
The finest analysis I've seen so far is Ashe's video.

The teaser shows destroyed mass relays and an older looking Liara, so a prequel seems very unlikely.
Agreed.

The "character at the end picking up an N7 badge" is without a doubt Liara.
And that they showed both galaxies at the beginning, and as Fred mentioned destroyed Mass relays, basically rules out a prequel.While Liara was my first thought, and it's highly likely, I wouldn't say beyond a doubt. Even not being a prequel, it sure seems like it's going back to the Milky Way. Guessing all those choices we made are going to be erased for a canon ending.
Well, it is pretty obvious, don't you think? They need a link between the games, and Liara always was that link, starting in the Trilogy. 🙂
Also Michael Gamble called the first shot of the trailer with both, the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxies visible, "intentional!". So it might be that we will be in both galaxies.
