At the end of the centuries-long voyage, the Hyperion finally arrives in the Heleus Cluster and Ryder wakes up from cryostasis. Soon after, the ark strikes an unknown object in space, temporarily disabling the power and artificial gravity. Despite these complications, the Hyperion reaches Habitat 7, humanity's designated home. However, to the surprise of the crew, Habitat 7 appears vastly different from their initial scans from the Milky Way prior to departure. Unwilling to believe the journey was for naught, the Pathfinder team decides to survey the planet to determine its viability. The atmospheric conditions being more than they could anticipate, the team crash lands on the planet. There, they encounter a harsh environment, hostile aliens, and unknown mega-structures. In time, they successfully retreat from the planet but suffer a great misfortune in the process. With Habitat 7 deemed inhospitable and the team still reeling from the setback, it is up to Ryder to head into the unknown to find a new home for humanity.
