Prologue: Earth

Prologue: Earth is the opening mission of Mass Effect 3, acquired automatically at the start of the game and set in Vancouver in 2186 as the Reapers attack Earth. Shepard follows Anderson across the rooftops, fighting husks and Cannibals while Reapers and Oculi destroy Alliance ships and fighters, and makes for a radio. Aboard the Normandy afterwards, Shepard follows Anderson's orders to leave Earth and seek aid from the Citadel Council, and Admiral Hackett gives the next mission, Priority: Mars.
