Mass Effect: Andromeda Hotfix 1.07 Patches Minor Bugs, Alt Outfit Fix and More
Since Mass Effect: Andromeda’s release, it has received a wildly polarized reception for its presentation and gameplay, it has also become noteworthy for containing numerous bugs at launch, some hilarious, while others, for some, were seen as a hindrance. BioWare has begun to address these glitchy concerns with a series of patches in the last few weeks (and more on the way to enhance certaim storyline aspects such as romance), aiming to please the greater Mass Effect fanbase. Andromeda hotfix 1.07 is the newest of these updates, and while it doesn’t do anything too spectacular, it does repair a few annoying issues that have been plaguing gamers as of late.
The issues in question ranged from cosmetic to game-breaking, the most substantial of which being a fix to game-freezing crash that happens during an emergency SOS mission to planet Kadara. Andromeda producer Michael Gamble gave a quick rundown of the hotfix on Twitter, while also providing advice for PC users having trouble with the new patch.

On PC, if you're having issues launching post hotfix, try Go offline in Origin, launch game, then go online. Also, restart Origin.
