-Accessibility settings: Invert X axis, Invert Y axis, aim assist, control schemes dedicated to left-handed people
-Version 1.0.0.5 on disc. The patched version is 1.0.0.7, so only two patches are missing from the disc build.
-Features four different control schemes.
-Includes some gameplay features for the Kinect exclusive to the Xbox version.
-On Series X, the game plays at 60 FPS due to FPS Boost.
-Only The Basement is included as a Survivor Mode challenge. The other maps and characters are DLCs.

-Visible aliasing noticeable to different degrees throughout the game.
-While doing a hacking mini-game or interacting with a terminal, being hit from behind by an android or a human did not result in any damage.
-Two instances of janky animations observed at the end of climbing ladders.
-Two instances observed of a pistol that had a few bullets loaded in (but was not full) had to be reloaded again from scratch after firing a few of them.
-Encountered a single instance of a reload not adding ammo properly.
-In Mission 14, "The Descent", encountered a facehugger that disappeared after trying to hit the player while interacting with a terminal and one that pulled and killed us from outside a tunnel.
-In Mission 18, "Tomorrow, Together", near the end of the nest section, a facehugger can pull and kill the player across a doorway.

All achievements unlocked properly after going online, even if a few had a small delay.

Overall a very solid disc build, with very minor issues.
