Comments:

Note: We did not finish the campaign due to how broken the game was. Unsure if there is any issues that would stop you from completing the campaign but there was nothing that prevented any of the progress we made.

Labour & Science Weapon Skin Pack is a voucher code inside the box and not included on the disc.
Observed many visual bugs such as NPC’s missing their head, body stretching, walls disappearing and being able to see into the room.
Had an issue with taking damage from an acid puddle that was invisible.
Observed texture loading and pop in.
Dialogue observed cutting off and distorting.
Observed severe ghosting on some moving objects.
Observed enemies falling through the floor.
Frame rate dips occur.
The weapon upgrade menu lags severely.
Trying to take any item out of storage always crashed the game.
Observed the reload button use a healing item instead.

Additional full playthrough report from within our community:

Played in Russian language with English subtitles and various other glitches occurred beyond the original report:
-- The disc build seemingly does not feature the epilogue portion of the Bad / "Revenge" ending which depicts extra scenes where films reels discuss the fate of "Charles" and P-3 awakens in Limbo to find one of the Twins reaching out to him. End credits appears to be a rough draft with no music and an instance of placeholder text. Returning to main menu from there appears zoomed in with no visible text albeit operational. Have not tested the Good / "Leave" ending.
-- Massive lighting bugs where everything would go dark to the point that you can't see anything in the game outside the sky box, reflections and various shapes on two separate occasions. Loading a save does fix the issue even when you happen to save as the problem occurs.
-- Electro gun would not work until multiple glove upgrades were done to unlock additional energy bars.
-- None of the cartoon animations exist outside of the "game over" screen and one specific location (Lighthouse).
-- Clearing system cache appears to speed up the upgrade menu sections outside of a small pause. As previously reported, clearing cache does not resolve the crashes with removing / dissembling from storage.
-- Numerous instances of untranslated dialogue for subtitles left either in native Russian, blank or placeholder text.
-- Second boss would generate a 3D checkerboard from its body during a certain animation.
-- Observed three instances of soft-locks (which required loading a previous save to correct unresponsive elements, ex. frozen elevator) and three crashes that, strangely, happened only in the first-quarter of the whole experience. Two instances of loot rooms providing an unlimited supply of loot for nearly fifteen seconds each. Various broken trophies.
