Gears of War - Hidden Fronts Map Pack

Hidden Fronts Multiplayer Map Pack:
New Maps available May 3rd

Gears of War® releases four new action-packed multiplayer maps on Thursday, May 3. The new downloadable content set is titled “Hidden Fronts” Multiplayer Map Pack.

The map pack features four new exciting multi-player maps for Xbox live: Bullet Marsh, Garden, Process, and Subway.

Bullet Marsh
The action takes place in a Kryll-infested swamp. Life saving lights are powered by an aging generator. The generator is destructable from stray bullets which would leave all combatants vulnerable to the ravenous Kryll.

Garden
An ancient conservatory, though in ruins and overgrown by vegitation, still has a functioning pesticide system. This system is deadly to anyone who enters without first purging the air within of toxins.

Process
Teams struggle for control of this underground Imulsion processing plant, which is active in spite of the end of the Pendulum wars.

Subway
A long deserted Subway station is infested with Locust.

The “Hidden Fronts” Multiplayer Map Pack will explode onto Xbox LIVE® Marketplace on May 3 for 800 Microsoft Points. All four of the new maps will be made available at no cost over Xbox LIVE on Sept. 3, 2007.
