About AFC Files

An .afc file is an audio file saved in a proprietary format used by BioWare to store game audio in various titles, such as Mass Effect 2 and Mass Effect 3. AFC files contain compressed sound data, including dialogue, ambient effects, and music. The format allows large amounts of high-quality audio to fit efficiently within the game's installation data while maintaining synchronization with cinematic and in-game events.

AFC files are typically found in the audio archives of BioWare games and are not meant to be played directly outside the game. However, players and modders may extract them to listen to or modify the original sound assets. Users can open and play .afc files on FileHelper.com by dragging them to this page.

Converting AFC Files

You can convert .afc files to other formats to improve compatibility:

• Converting to MP3: Makes the audio playable on nearly all devices and media players, though it applies additional lossy compression that slightly reduces audio quality compared to the original file.
• Converting to AAC: Provides efficient compression and good sound quality, producing smaller files than MP3 while maintaining compatibility with most modern devices and streaming platforms.
