The Road Ahead Has Been Announced For Mass Effect Andromeda


Bioware have today detailed their plans for Mass Effect Andromeda, which includes a patch that rolls out tomorrow, but also the content and fixes coming through out the year.

To learn all about what the team have planned, check out this announcement by Studio Head Aaryn Flynn. For the new patch though, the single thing I am excited for is the skipping of auto pilot when in the galaxy map.

For the patch tomorrow though, here is what you can expect to see improved.
