Microsoft and Epic Studios announced today that "Call to Arms Map Pack", the second "Judgment" Map Pack for "Gears of War Judgment" which explores the darker side of the "Gears" universe, with three bone-chilling maps, the new "Master at Arms" multiplayer mode and exclusive digital rewards, is available to download now for VIP Season Pass holders via Xbox LIVE, and will be available worldwide April 30 for 1,000 Microsoft Points.
Developed by Epic Games and People Can Fly, the Call to Arms Map Pack includes three new multiplayer maps, a brand-new mode called "Master at Arms", and six armour and gun skins for customising your characters and weapons.
Set against the backdrop of the Locust invasion of Halvo Bay, all three new maps provide a mix of close quarters and vertical combat, keeping Gearheads immersed in the action. The Call to Arms Map Pack provides 10 new Achievements worth a total of 250 Gamerscore.
Check out the official Call to Arms Map Pack Trailer just below and read full descriptions of the new maps and mode just after the break.
Call to Arms Map Pack - New Maps:
Terminal: The speed and ferocity of the Locust invasion took Halvo Bay completely by surprise. Residents scrambled to evacuate by every means possible, and COG forces were called in to maintain order as martial law was enforced. However, the Locust showed no mercy, and gave no quarter; they swept through train terminals like this one to take advantage of the close quarters and sheer number of defenseless humans trapped within its walls. Sometimes, COG forces could hold the line long enough for a final evacuation, but too many lost their lives in defense of the people and the land they loved.
Blood Drive: As casualties started to mount, the staff at Halvo Memorial quickly began what would become the largest triage effort in the history of Sera. Their “Give Blood Today” campaign inspired a global blood drive in support of COG forces and wounded civilians. Sadly, Halvo fell quickly, and the hospital became a battlefront instead of a sanctuary. The seed of hope was planted, however, and government-run Memorial hospitals across the country mobilized to keep the effort alive until Jacinto Memorial was the last standing bastion of hope for the people of Sera.
Boneyard: The concept of traditional memorial services had to be suspended due to the constant stream and alarming volume of casualties as Sera fell victim to the Locust Horde. Memorial grounds quickly became boneyards. Unmarked holes became grave sites and mausoleums were filled with the nameless remains of the fallen, their skeletons piled into heaps. Tread lightly, you never know what, or who, you’re walking on, and one day you’re bound to join them.
The Call to Arms Map Pack will be available on Xbox LIVE for 1000 Microsoft Points April 30. Players who purchase the "Gears of War: Judgment" VIP Season Pass will receive early access to map packs and a 25 percent savings versus purchasing them individually.
