Pulled straight from Major Nelson’s blog:
It’s the ‘Hidden Fronts’ map pack and it’s dropping this Thursday, May 3, at 9 a.m. GMT
The map pack is 800 points in which you’ll get four new multiplayer 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.
You can grab the pack this Thursday for 800 points or wait until Sept. 3, 2007 when all four maps will be available for free.
While I haven’t been playing much Gears of War lately due to brushing up my Halo skills before the Halo 3 beta, I’ll definitely be purchasing these maps since I think the price is fair and they do sound pretty damn cool if you ask me. The idea of being able to black out the other team so the Kryll can rip them to shreds sounds incredibly fun!
