Mass Effect: Andromeda -- All The Known Issues

BioWare's much-anticipated spacefaring RPG Mass Effect: Andromeda launched last week, though the game has not been without its issues. Now, the developer has published a list of the "main issues" that it is looking to patch with upcoming updates.

Much has been made about Andromeda's animations, and one of the tracked issues is for a problem where Ryder can initiate an "unintended animation state" when running in a zig-zag pattern. Another issue concerns squadmates; they can sometimes "repeatedly teleport on top of the player," while at other times they might not follow when instructed to.

BioWare is also aware of a problem where Andromeda does not save often enough during missions. You can see all the known issues/bugs in the list below. We'll update this post in the time ahead as bugs are fixed or others appear.

Bear in mind that the list below is not exhaustive, but only represents the "main issues" that BioWare is currently tracking at this time.

In other news, Andromeda producer Michael Gamble thanked fans for "sticking with us" following the game's launch. You can see his full tweet below.

Andromeda came out on March 21 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. GameSpot's Andromeda review scored it a 6/10; you can see a roundup of review scores from other outlets here.
