Announced last week, Epic Games will be make their third and final installment of the Gears Of War saga. For the millions of you that have been waiting, on September 20th wait no more. GOW2 came out in 2008 and part 3 takes place 18 months after only for Marcus, Cole, Baird, Dom, & others to find a new threat emerging. Originally slated for an April release but was pushed back for a later release as they plan to launch a public beta test of the multiplayer mode in the Spring of 2011. The last piece of the game will offer its players:
- An enthralling cinematic story that engages players in intense action.
- Five-vs.-five multiplayer experience and four-player co-op campaign.
- New multiplayer game modes, including Beast Mode (where you fight as the Locust Horde—in all their incarnations!).
- Five new maps: Trenches (which features a relentless, visibility-reducing sandstorm), Overpass, Mercy, Checkout, and Thrashball.
- A new arsenal that includes the Bayonet Charge, Retro Lancer, Sawed-off Shotgun, OneShot (a heavy sniper rifle that penetrates shields or cover for surprise one-shot kills), Incendiary Grenade, and Digger Launcher as well as old favorites (with subtle improvements), like the Hammerburst and Classic Lancer—and every weapon has its own execution move!
