Mass Effect 3 thrusts players into an all-out galactic war to save mankind from an ancient alien race known only as the Reapers. Players assume the role of Commander Shepard, a war-torn veteran who's willing to do whatever it takes to eliminate this nearly unstoppable foe. With a team of elite soldiers, each player decides how to take back Earth, from the weapons and abilities utilized to the relationships he or she forges or breaks.
Mass Effect 3: From Ashes is a downloadable content pack that's included in the Mass Effect 3 Collector's Edition and Digital Deluxe Edition. In it, Commander Shepard discovers an ancient Prothean artifact that could turn the tide in the war to take back Earth. Players take on a dangerous mission during Earth's final hours to retrieve this critical piece of lost technology, and travel to a remote human colony to secure the artifact before the shadowy, pro-human organization, Cerberus, captures it for its own plans of domination. This optional content can be purchased on Xbox Live, PlayStation Network and PC for $9.99 or 800 Microsoft points.
Mass Effect 3 also features the Galaxy at War system, where players have the option to fight the galactic war on multiple fronts. The system includes the franchise debut of cooperative multiplayer, as well as two iOS-exclusive apps, the cover-based, third-person shooter, Mass Effect Infiltrator, and the Mass Effect 3 Datapad. Progress made in each of these components directly links back to the player's main campaign, helping Commander Shepard rally the forces of the galaxy to eliminate the Reaper threat.
The Mass Effect 3: Galaxy at War feature can be activated via the Online Pass code found in every new copy of Mass Effect 3.
