Citadel DLCBy Samuel ClaibornKBABZBob+77.8k moreUpdated: Mar 11, 2013 6:31pm UTC

Mass Effect 3: Citadel is the final single player DLC pack for Mass Effect 3, offering fans one last sentimental journey with Commander Shepard and their squad. Players explore and discover new locations across the vast, deep-space station while also having the opportunity to reconnect with some of their favorite characters from all three of the Mass Effect games.

The DLC was released March 5th, 2013 for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.

Look below for information on obtaining the DLC and starting it within the game.

Check out the Walkthrough sections for a complete guide, with videos, to getting through the missions:

  • Walkthrough Part 1 takes Shepard from the Normandy, to the Citadel, to the Sushi Restaurant, through the Wards, and back to the apartment.
  • Walkthrough Part 2 begins with the whole crew in the apartment, and takes them through the Casino, and back to the apartment.
  • Walkthrough Part 3 takes the crew through The Archives.
  • Walkthrough Part 4 takes Shepard back to the Normandy for the big boss battle.
  • Walkthrough Part 5 shows how to throw an awesome party!
How to Download the Citadel DLC

The Xbox 360 version requires two separate downloads - a part 1, and a part 2. First purchase and download part 1, then search the marketplace for part 2, which will be a free download. The PS3 and PC versions come as a single download.

How to Access the Citadel DLC

You can only access the Citadel DLC with a save after the second Priority: The Citadel 2 mission, so you'll need to load a late-game save (before Priority: Cerberus Headquarters).

Start up the game and access Shepard's e-mail at one of his private terminals on the Normandy. Look for an e-mail from Admiral Hackett instructing the crew to take shore leave at the Citadel, and offering Shepard the use of Anderson's apartment.

See the Citadel DLC Walkthrough for all the skinny on getting through this final adventure!
