So strange.
A new Mass Effect Legendary Edition update has corrected a number of issues, including one that meant players couldn’t launch the game on Xbox Series X using a wireless headset.
No, really.
The issue still remains, in part — it’s advised that players leave a headset connected (or disconnected) when using Legendary Edition‘s launcher. A proper fix for the strange issue is coming soon.
Sadly, an issue we picked up last night — in which the games’ Paramour II Achievement won’t unlock — remains untouched.
Full patch notes are below.
General
- Fixed the main issue where the launcher would crash or become unresponsive on Xbox Series X when using a wireless headset
- Known issue: This can still happen if you enable/disable a headset in the launcher. A future fix will resolve this issue.

- Minor calibrations, fixes, and stability improvements

- Improvements to pre-rendered cutscenes to reduce occasional artifacts
Mass Effect 2
