GOW Maps!

Microsoft today announced that new downloadable content is ready to go for Epic's monster Xbox 360 title Gears of War. From early Thursday, January 11 in Australia, and January 10 in the States, gamers will have access to a new content pack on Xbox Live Marketplace. And yes, it's free. Huzzah!

What's under the hood? Two new maps for a start. The first, Raven Down, takes place on the bombed out city streets surrounding the crash site of a Raven Helicopter. With densely clustered car wrecks and detritus providing ample cover points, the map sees Delta Force make their way in from multiple access points to search for survivors. The second, Old Bones, looks to take on an almost survival horror tone, with a majestic old museum as the setting. The Locust Horde want to take it apart, further eradicating any record of humanity off the face of Sera, while Delta Force, naturally, will do anything to stop that happening. Also in the pack, an introductory video hosted by Epic's CliffyB.


The content pack is sponsored by the Discovery Channel, and along with the release they're giving away two million Microsoft points (in 400 point increments) for use on Xbox Live Marketplace. The promotion will take place through www.readyaimfuture.com, on January 13th, 14th and 15th (U.S. dates). Check out the site for full details.
