According to an article by USA Today , BioWare’s parent company Electronic Arts will send copies of the game into space using weather balloons. The balloons will take off from San Francisco, Las Vegas, New York City, London, Paris and Berlin. Each package is embedded with a GPS tracking device that will report to waiting users via the game’s website . The lucky few who find these traveling copies after they’ve touched down onto safe Earth soil will be able to play the game before its release on March 6.
