Sorry, no one's giving Mako rides yet though.

Mass Effect fans looking to experience BioWare's sprawling universe have a chance to do so in real life now. Mass Effect: New Earth 4D is opening at California's Great America in Santa Clara on my birthday (May 18) and I don't get to go. So who cares? Just kidding.

We've already known about the ride for some time now, and riders will be given 3D glasses, follow along with a live actor, and utilize motion seats for a "4D experience." It's just like all those theater rides you've probably been on before at any one theme park. But it still sounds like a pretty awesome experience, and I definitely want to give it a try. Just the photo teaser alone posted on Twitter has me salivating for anything ahead of Mass Effect Andromeda's eventual early 2017 launch.

So who's up for a trip to Cali this coming month?

#MassEffectNewEarth created in partnership with @EA, will officially open on May 18. https://t.co/cLy8yE5whb pic.twitter.com/wFwFuRyAu2
