Recruit Kelly: Shepard now has the option to recruit Kelly as a crew member at the refugee docks. Refusing to recruit her will advance her story like normal. Once recurited, Kelly will become a War Asset and have an office that is situated on the Normandy. How Kelly and her PTSD is dealt with will be addressed if you talk to her.
New Conversations: Shepard will be able to have full conversations with Kelly on the Normandy. Conversations include hearing Kelly's reaction to each mission and how Kelly joined Cerberus in the first place (restored from the beta script.)
Romance Overhaul:Unlike in the base game, Kelly is treated as a true romance. Romancing her will unlock the Paramour achievement. Her romance now follows the standard rules, meaning that if you romance her, it will lock you out of other romances, and if you romance someone else, it will lock you out of hers. She will also get a full romance scene prior to Priority: Cronos Station
Citadel DLC: Kelly fully participates in Citadel DLC. If not romanced, there will be an email explaning why she is absent during the story part of the DLC. If she is romanced, she takes Traynor's place during the story. Post mission, she now has a hangout event in the Silversun Strip and is a full particapent in the party.
Settings Menu Options: Kelly now has new outfits and a new hairstyle that can be turned on in settings menu.
