About

Cerberus has attacked Eden Prime and taken over a human colony. Alliance forces are stretched too thin fighting the Reapers and are unable to offer support. Intel indicates that Cerberus is after a Prothean artifact and has found it. Shepard must infiltrate the colony and recover the artifact.

From Ashes includes a powerful new and permanent squad member – the last surviving Prothean. Learn more about the last days of the Prothean empire, before the Reapers wiped out their race. From Ashes also includes a new weapon, the Prothean Particle Rifle, and new appearances for every squad member.
