Fans of Epic Games' Gears of War have logged plenty of hours in the game over Xbox Live, chainsawing each other to pieces in just about every nook and cranny of the game's 10 multiplayer maps. This Wednesday, gamers will have some new places to dismember, shoot, and curb-stomp opponents, as Microsoft has announced that it is releasing two new multiplayer maps for Gears of War over Xbox Live.
As previously mentioned (http://www.gamespot.com/news/6163240.html) by Epic president Mike Capps, the content will be free to download. The content is scheduled to be available this Wednesday. The publisher did not mention what time the maps will be ready, but previous downloads for XBL Wednesdays have been up at 1 a.m Pacific.
Microsoft has offered brief descriptions and screens (above, right) of the two maps. Raven Down sees Delta Forces battling the Locust Horde around a downed Raven helicopter. On Old Bones, gamers will duke it out around several Capitaline museums.
The content pack is being sponsored by the Discovery Channel, which will also be holding a contest to give away a total of 2 million Xbox Live Marketplace points to gamers. Details have not yet been announced, but will be posted at the Web site for the TV show Future Weapons (http://www.readyaim.com/) soon.
