eprevious Mass Effect games, Mass Effect 3 allows you to import a character from a previous game (Mass Effect 2). To import a character in Mass Effect 3, you will need to have a Mass Effect 2 save on your storage disk.

How to Import a Mass Effect 3 Character

Bonuses[edit]

Here are the bonuses you can get from importing a Mass Effect 2 save file.

• Your level from Mass Effect 2 will carry over to Mass Effect 3.
• Your Squad Members will also start at the same level.
• You will get Squad Points to upgrade your Powers based on your imported level. If you import a Level 30 Shepard, you will have 1 point automatically placed for you in one Power, and 59 available to place at your whim.
• Your Paragon/Renegade points will bump your Mass Effect 3 Reputation meter up about one quarter. Your Morality choices will be reflected.

Appearance[edit]

If you import a character you cannot choose its sex, BUT you CAN change his/her Appearance. You can also change your character’s Class.

Some faces cannot be imported into Mass Effect 3. In this case, you will have to choose a default Shepard or create a new one.

This bug occurs when the imported character's appearance is from a Mass Effect (1) save. If your Mass Effect 1 Shepard's appearance was altered in any way in Mass Effect 2, however, the Shepard will be importable.Source: IGN

Cloud Save Files[edit]

EA has confirmed that Mass Effect 3 does not accept Mass Effect 2 saves imported from the cloud on Xbox 360. Local save files which have been moved across consoles via the cloud are also unusable. Source: IGN

Players hoping to transfer a ME2 save file via the cloud onto a new Xbox to play ME3 must transfer the save file back to the original hard drive. In order to use a ME2 save file, players must move the save file back onto the original Xbox 360, and then transfer it manually onto the new Xbox, either via USB or using a transfer cable. Local save files which have been moved across consoles via the cloud are also unusable. Therefore, players without their original hard drives will encounter some problems, as there is no way to recover your save file.

However, if you still have ME2 laying around and have transferred your save file to a new machine (Via cloud or other method), there is a way to get your character to import. Start ME2 and load your last saved game. Then create a NEW SAVED GAME, which will then be local to your hard drive and allow you to import your character into ME3. Tested and working on a PS3.
