Gibbed Save Editor

What it is

Gibbed Save Editor is a free Windows utility for editing save files for Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, and Mass Effect 2. The Borderlands 2 editor can change characters, gear, currencies, and data in its Raw tab. The Mass Effect 2 editor covers credits, resources, Paragon and Renegade points, character details, squad and loyalty, and imported decisions from Mass Effect 1. It does not provide deep face or appearance sculpting for Mass Effect 2. Steam and Epic PC saves use the same format and can be edited without extra tools. Console saves are encrypted and signed, so console workflows involve decrypting, editing, then re-encrypting and re-signing. The maker advises backing up save files first, since a bad edit that overwrites a save can break it. The official site's download buttons lead to Rick Gibbed's GitHub releases, and the site says it hosts no files. The maker says the source code is public and describes antivirus detections of the genuine GitHub download as false positives. Borderlands 2 version 1.0.46 is identified as the final official release, dated May 30, 2020; no Gibbed editor exists for Borderlands 3. The site also provides guides, weapon codes, troubleshooting fixes, and a way to report inaccuracies or dead links.

Good, and not so good

Who it suits

Gibbed Save Editor suits Windows players editing saves for Borderlands 2, The Pre-Sequel, or Mass Effect 2. Console users should be prepared for the decrypt-and-resign workflow, while PC users can edit Steam and Epic saves without extra tools.

Gibbed Save Editor offers game-specific save editing for three listed games, with different capabilities across them. Back up saves before editing, and note that console saves require additional handling.
