Many New World MSQ bugged reports have been made by players trying to progress in the new Call of the Wilds expansion. Multiple threads on the official New World Reddit and the Steam discussion forums have users stating that they are experiencing bugs with main story quests. With the new DLC, sometimes they don’t appear even though the player is at the proper level to get to the next main mission. Here’s everything we know so far about whether you can fix a main story quest error or glitch with Amazon Games’ New World on PC.
How to fix New World MSQ bugged glitch
At the time of writing, the main way to fix any bugs with the main story quests is to wait for Amazon Games to update the game.
There are so many MSQ bugs that Amazon Games has compiled them all into a list. At the time of writing, the developer has recognized issues with numerous missions including A Shadow Falls, Rage of the Mammoth, Secrets of the Heartgem, Brimstone Sands, Azoth Staff V, Presage Pier, The Invasion of Artemis, A First Step of Many, and Covenant Paladin Tier (from 5 to 6). This is according to the official Known Issues page for New World, as last updated on October 5, 2023.
It’s unclear if there are more main story quests that have been impacted by the bug, but the issue is pressing enough that Amazon Games recommends that players not contact customer support. The developer promises that a fix is being worked on, meaning that players should expect a patch or hotfix in the coming weeks.
The developers also recognize that there are problems with the Season Pass and that there are players who are unable to get past the Amazon Games logo.
