Bioware has published the release notes for the day-one Mass Effect Andromeda update 1.04 alongside the notes for the previously released early-access patch.

　　Over the past week, a lot has been written about BioWare’s latest Mass Effect installment. Since the game’s early access trial went live last week, players have been complaining about severely lacking facial animations, and early reviews paint a disappointing picture for a game that has been in development for quite some time. As covered earlier today, BioWare has promised that the RPG will be “strongly supported”, and patch notes for the game’s day-one and early access update have now been released by the developer.

　　Based on the patch notes, fixes for progression bugs and animation tweaks have been the priority for BioWare. Check out the full notes below:
