Solo Warfare LE3 is a standalone survival mode for Mass Effect 3 Legendary Edition that reimagines concepts from ME3 multiplayer as well as from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's (2011) iconic survival mode for solo play.

This mod takes the intense combat and unique gameplay loop from those games and cranks it up to eleven.


Dive into endless waves of increasingly difficult enemies, managing resources and strategizing your survival. The mod introduces a custom progression system, allowing you to level up and unlock new abilities as you fight. But that's just the beginning. Solo Warfare LE3 brings a whole new dimension to the battlefield with its killstreak system. Call in devastating air support, deploy sentry turrets, or even summon a squad of AI-controlled squadmates to turn the tide of battle.

As you progress, you'll face new challenges, including custom enemy types like Cerberus Helicopters and Juggernauts. The familiar foes have also received an upgrade, with expanded weapon arsenals and tactical variations to keep you on your toes.

Solo Warfare LE3 also introduces a Survival Rating system, determining your access to more powerful killstreaks as you prove your combat prowess. Challenge yourself to climb the leaderboards while managing the risk versus reward. Extract safely to keep all your resources, or push your limits – but beware, death will cost you a portion of your hard-earned spoils.

Between missions, visit the WarfareHQ hub to spend your hard-earned resources on permanent upgrades, preparing for the next, more challenging tier of combat.

With ten difficulty levels and a personal leaderboard system, Solo Warfare LE3 offers a fresh, replayable experience that push pushes the boundaries of what's possible in Mass Effect 3.
