← All areas in this guide

The SSV Normandy SR-1 serves as Commander Shepard's primary mobile base and hub throughout the game. Players use the ship's Galaxy Map to navigate between star systems and interact with their squadmates between story missions. It also provides access to equipment management, armory purchases, and the M35 Mako deployment bay.

Tips

  • Talk to all companion squadmates on the ship after every major story planet to advance their personal dialogue trees and unlock companion-specific assignments like Garrus: Find Dr. Saleon and Wrex: Family Armor.
  • You can use the galaxy map console located directly behind Joker in the cockpit to plot courses, select mission destinations, and land on uncharted worlds.
  • Inspect the M35 Mako in the lower Engineering bay before landing on hostile worlds to make sure your party's weapons and gear are fully optimized for ground combat.
