Er du stadig i krig med Gears of War 2 på din 360’er, kan du fra i dag finde den føromtalte Snowblind Map Pack på Xbox Live Marketplace. Pakken byder på tre nye baner samt et “remake” af en enkelt bane (Fuel Depot) fra det første Gears of War-spil. De achievement-glade gamere kan også få lidt mere for de 800 MS Point som pakken koster. Der er ni nye achievements til en samlet “værdi” af 250 point som du kan booste din gamerscore med. Vi har elegant flettet sidste uges Snowblind-trailer ind i nedenstående uddrag af danges pressemeddelelse.

LONDON – 31 March 2009 – “Gears of War 2” fans around the world can engage in even more intense action in treacherous winter settings offered by the latest “Gears of War 2” Add-on, the Snowblind Map Pack. Trudge, crawl and roadie run through the harshest of weather conditions as you and your squadmates dive into four new multiplayer maps.

Spanning tunnels, bridges, courtyards and offices, players can sharpen their skills on the four new maps in the Snowblind Add-on: Grindyard, Under Hill, Courtyard and Fuel Depot. All maps are playable on every “Gears of War 2” multiplayer mode, including the highly popular Horde mode:

  • Grindyard is a massive industrial complex located in a junk-processing plant from the days of Sera’s industrial excess. The office, now gutted, serves as a perfect place to fortify, but if you’re not careful, you’ll end up trapped inside the office with no hope of escape.
  • Under Hill takes players through snowbound tunnels that were once billed as a feat of Seran engineering. Head for high ground on the bridge and you’ll be rewarded with massive firepower, but be prepared to defend your position and try to escape being cornered.
  • Courtyard is a wide-open battle royale containing explosive weapons that once formed the heart of Ephyra’s fashionable Civic Center. Lines of sight are far and clear here, and battles tend to focus around the elevated sniper nest. Watch your back and keep a fresh clip.
  • Fuel Depot, back by popular demand, Fuel Depot is a “Gears of War 2” remake of the fan-favorite “Gears of War” map, but winter has set in and the depot is now covered in a blanket of snow. Open and unforgiving, it takes a well-coordinated team to cover all the angles here.
