Certain multiplayer missions in Andromeda are set to stay around for a certain time and drop specifics kinds of loot. BioWare revealed that completing such mission yield rewards for both multiplayer and single-player. Rewards include loot boxes, Mission Funds, experience and so on.
lead designer Ian S. Frazier recently revealed that you actually don’t have to play the missions if you don’t want to – instead you can send a strike team in to do it for you. Unfortunately, you will only gain single-player rewards whereas if you play with a friend, you will gain both single-player and multiplayer rewards. This addition is pretty cool as it adds another part to the game for fans who prefer the lone wolf option when gaming.
Frazier also noted that multiplayer will be available from launch but you’ll only gain access to Missions once you’ve reached a key point in the story.
Mass Effect: Andromeda is out on March 21st for Xbox One, PS4 and PC.
