While today might be a "quieter" edition of Mass Effect's celebratory N7 Day, BioWare's promise of "a little fun" is already paying off. Three years after No Man's Sky pulled off one of the coolest gaming Easter eggs ever, the Normandy is returning to the galactic sandbox.
"In the intervening years since that event, we have welcomed a huge number of Travellers, not least a whole new cohort of Switch players and an increasingly large number of Chinese fans," No Man's Sky boss Sean Murray writes in the announcement. "Many of these new players have envied those who proudly displayed their Normandy in their frigate collection. Mass Effect fans know that this legendary frigate only appears when it is most needed! Today, and for the next two weeks, as a love letter from one science fiction game to another, we are giving everyone another chance to encounter the Normandy in an overhauled version of the original mission and add it to their collection."
