Hi Everyone, Evil Chris here.

I am stealing Derek's post to provide more detail on the upcoming Mass Effect 3 single player AND multiplayer demos. Jessica posted this FAQ in the ME3 News forum, but I think it should be here as well.

Mass Effect 3 will have a pre-release demo in January 2012. This demo will have both single player and multiplayer sections, giving fans a taste of what's to come on March 6, 2012. Be first to the front lines in the multiplayer section of the Mass Effect 3 demo! Redemption of the Online Pass for Battlefield 3 will unlock this early access. But
rallying for war is just getting started - in late November / early December, BioWare will announce other ways for fans to engage the enemy with their friends online from day one! 

 
What are the details of the Mass Effect 3 pre-release demo?

•The Mass Effect 3 pre-release demo will launch in January 2012 (exact date TBA).
•The demo will include both single-player and multi-player sections.
•The demo will be released in all regions where the game is

How can I get early access to the multi-player portion of the Mass Effect 3 demo coming in January 2012?

•Owners of Battlefield 3, on any platform, who activate their Online Pass will automatically be granted early  access to the multiplayer portion of the Mass Effect 3 demo. There is no need to enter any other codes, the early access will be applied to the EA Account associated with the Online Pass.
•This applies to all regions where the demo is released (to be announced)
•The exact date of the demo launch will be announced in late November
•There will be another program whereby players and fans of the Mass Effect  franchise can unlock this early access (with no purchase necessary) – this will also be announced in late November or early December.
•There will also be a tool posted on www.masseffect.com allowing players to check if their EA account has been granted the early access.
•The length of the early access period is TBA.
•The single-player section of the demo will be available to all players on day one of the demo launch.

As mentioned, we will have more information and dates in the near future.

All platforms get this demo or?

Edit:  Bioware has gotten fast at this leak/damage control business

 Hi All,

The Mass Effect 3 demo will be coming soon and you can get early access to play. There
will be multiple opportunities to qualify for early access that will be
announced as we get closer to its release so stay tuned! The
first method of securing early access is via redemption of the Online Pass
included in new copies of Battlefield 3.  We will be updating the www.masseffect.com FAQ shortly with more details so check back.

Damn now I have to decide if I want to get battlefield 3 so I can play the demo!

I'm glad that BF3 isn't the only gateway to the demo. Thanks for the prompt and clear information! :-)

[Bekkael]

Yes! *fistpump*

I'm assuming its a MP only demo - any comments on that, or is it yet to be decided?

I'd be perfectly happy with a MP demo btw, I'm just curious.

Edit: nevermind, the ME2 FB page says it'll have SP and MP parts. I don't see how a SP part will work unless its a prologue to ME3, or the opening of it - unless you don't import your Shepard and just use a predefined one for a mission or two.

I'd sell my soul to be able to play the ME3 demo. Including turning myself over to the evil of that vile piece of software.

All hail Origin!

[RurouniSaiya-jin]

I already had Battlefield 3 preordered so the demo is just icing on the cake ^,^

If only you were a stargate fan. That statement is ironic if you are.

I plan to play BF3 through Origin on the PC but ME3 on my xbox, since I have all my saves there. I will get a code to play the demo on xbox too or it's only with retail copies?

I'm debating getting it but I never played the others so....

[Rivercurse]

Literally cancelled my BF3 pre order a couple of days ago. Times are tough..

Anyway, I can wait for this demo. Just pleased it's coming.

[Xerxes52]

Awesome, I already had BF3 preordered. Great news.

[Ohei]

HECK YEAH.

[DiebytheSword]

I would love to get this as a part of my extremely early pre-order of the digital deluxe edition, especially since BF3 is not in the cards for me this time around.

[NYG1991]

I'd rather just pay 60 for the demo as I'd spend more time with that than BF3

[Zebron is reaL]

yep. My Thursday just got better

[chris2365]

Huff. At least there is more than one way to get early access. Thanks
