These 6 recruits get to find out what it means to be Pathfinders. The Mass Effect Andromeda website posted the announcement video and we are super jealous! According to the website, “Before embarking on this mission to explore a new galaxy, the recruits will have to show their abilities in a series of space training sessions within the European Astronaut Centre, home base for all European astronauts in Cologne. They will discover the meaning of courage as they prepare for humanity’s journey first-hand.”
