Asgard is a star system located in the Exodus cluster. In the asari cycle, the Utopia system was observed as suitable by the Citadel Council for habitation, due to the garden world in the system: after, it was never colonized due to the Treaty of Etamis, which placed the entire Exodus cluster within the Attican Traverse. Utopia was therefore left untouched until the arrival of the first wave of human colonists to the system, with their main colonization efforts focused on the planet they came to name "Terra Nova". Much like the rest of Exodus, Asgard became the bread basket of the Systems Alliance, with Terra Nova becoming their largest interstellar colony alongside Elysium. Asgard was briefly the target of an attempted batarian terrorist attack in 2183 CE, and fell under Reaper occupation during the Reaper War. After, remained a critical part of the Systems Coalition, largely going untouched (with the exception of the Tiara terrorist attack in 2200 CE) by the future wars that would define the Reformation and Dominion eras.

The system is named for the Nordic cosmological/mythological location of Ásgarðr, a location associated with the Nordic pantheon.
