Eighteen months later, issue still unresolved.
Community ManagerHey @Kaiyalai,
Since the Xbox store isn't our system, we don't have any visibility into availability or purchases from our side.
It sounds like that version of ME3 is no longer available on the Xbox store. Since collector's editions are usually a limited availability, it was most likely made unavailable at some point after Mass Effect 3 launched.
That is incorrect.
Mass Effect 3 for XBox 360 is still available for purchase, and the N7 Collector’s Edition DLC is a DLC entry for that edition which continues to have the issue I detailed in the original post.
Furthermore, I have already contacted Microsoft’s relevant support and was directed to reach out to EA/Bioware due to the Publisher being responsible for which games it lists in the store.
Additionally, though a slight tangent, I will note that several years ago the corresponding Collector Edition DLC for Mass Effect 2 was made purchasable, so it is not unreasonable to assume the same would be or has been done with this DLC.

No, is not a DLC, the "N7 Collector’s Edition" was a special edition of the game that included the same content as the digital deluxe edition, but came as a physical aka Disc version in a steel hard cover only.
After the game released a upgrade in digital form was made available for the Xbox that include the same items as the physical edition, and that upgrade is now not longer available.
Since the Mass Effect Legendary Edition, which includes all the DLC (minus Pinnacle Station) from the original trilogy, has been out for months, I highly doubt there's any chance it will be available again.
You still can buy the "N7 Collector’s Edition" as a physical disk or the "digital deluxe edition", that includes the same content, as a digital code at third party resellers like Amazon.
how is it not a piece of DLC when it is categorized as DLC in the store, exactly?
anyways if you can link me to a place that sells codes for the collector’s edition content I would be grateful.
