Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3: What’s the Max Level Cap?

Call of Duty is known for providing a level cap for players to aim for, and MW3 is no different. As you progress through your leveling, you’ll unlock various perks, tactical tools, killstreaks, and more. So, it’s incredibly worthwhile to grind for XP and level up as fast as you can.

The MW3 level cap in CoD MW3 is 55. However, once you max out Level 55, you’ll enter Prestige ranks and can progress further into endgame content.

How to View Your Current CoD MW3 Level

You can view your current level all over the main lobby. It’s listed directly next to your gamertag/username above your character. Additionally, in the upper right-hand corner, you can see a quick view of your advancement with a circle dictating your progression around your level.
