The existence of the Game Preserve Ship was first revealed to Royce by Noland and later by the Crucified Predator via a hologram from his Wrist Gauntlet, when Royce offered to free the latter from his captivity at the camp of the Super Predators. Royce agreed to free the Predator in exchange for safe passage back to Earth aboard the ship. He did so and the Predator used his Wrist Gauntlet to activate and prime ship for take off.
