New Gears of War map pack coming this Thursday
May 1, 2007
Four new maps for Epic Games‘ Gears of War are coming to Xbox Live this Thursday. These maps are part of the Hidden Front map pack which costs 800 Microsoft Points. Here’s the skinny on the new maps:
- Bullet Marsh – In this Kryll-infested swamp, an old generator still powers the area lights. A few stray bullets could easily knock out the generator, leaving combatants to fend for themselves against the Kryll.
- Garden – This overgrown and crumbling conservatory still has a working fertilization and pesticide system. This system can pose a serious hazard to anyone who ventures into the greenhouse without first venting the air.
- Process – Teams must fight for control of this subterranean Imulsion processing plant, still active despite the cessation of the Pendulum wars.
- Subway – Timgad’s Central Subway station used to serve as a central hub for commuters. Now the tunnels are crawling with Locust.
If you don’t have the 800 MS Points to shell out for the map pack this Thursday, don’t worry. All four maps will be available for free come September 3.
