What it is

Gibbed Save Editor is a free Windows utility for editing save files from Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel and Mass Effect 2. Borderlands 2 tools edit characters, gear, currencies and other data through a Raw tab. Mass Effect 2 tools cover credits, resources, Paragon and Renegade points, character details, squad and loyalty, plus decisions imported from Mass Effect 1. That editor does not provide deep face or appearance sculpting. The official website’s download buttons lead to Rick Gibbed’s GitHub releases, and the site says it hosts no files. The maker identifies himself as a programmer and modder, publishes the source code and describes antivirus detections of genuine GitHub downloads as false positives. Steam and Epic PC saves share a format and need no extra tools. Console saves require decrypting, editing, then re-encrypting and re-signing. Backups are advised because a bad overwrite can break a save. Borderlands 2 version 1.0.46 is identified as the final official release, dated May 30, 2020; no Borderlands 3 editor exists.
