How to get the Collector Assault Rifle?

Question

How do I get to use the Collector Assault Rifle? I had it in ME2 and I kinda like the look of it :)

Answer 1

The Collector Assault Rifle is unfortunately not directly present in the game.

If you are preordering The Art of the Mass Effect Universe, or if you buy a Mass Effect 3-branded Razer gaming accessory, you will get a code that will unlock you this weapon, but only in the Multiplayer game.
