Gears of War 3 Forces of Nature Screens & Trailers

Sweet preview of the destruction Mother Nature is going to bring!

Epic have released a set of screenshots and a couple of trailers for their upcoming "Forces of Nature" DLC pack for TA's 2011 Shooter of the Year, Gears of War 3.

The upcoming DLC pack features five new maps, new characters and new weapon skins. In these screenshots we get up close and personal with Dominic Santiago in his Commando training days, as he stands strong alongside a pretty slick looking Mechanic version of Baird. The brand new Savage Hunter is also featured in the same shot alongside another Locust with alternative skin who was originally only available as a pre-order bonus. The screenshots also showcase the upcoming maps from the pack; these include Aftermath, Artillery, Cove, Gears of War 2's classic, Jacinto, and last but certainly NOT least, Gears of War's legendary close-quarters map, Raven Down.

Here are the screens:

A couple of trailers have also been released too, showing off more of what's to come when Nature goes to work all over the upcoming maps. The first trailer is a Flyover-style video for each map; the second trailer showcases the maps in action with Gears usual style of gameplay.

Here's the first trailer:



Here's the second trailer:



Soldiers and Locust can embrace in the "Forces of Nature" on March 27th. Season Pass holders will be able to download this upcoming map pack for free, but those without a pass can purchase the pack separately for a currently undisclosed price: potentially looking like 800 MSP.

Nice showcase playing on casual and with a no damage mod. The boomer at the end wasn't even taking damage.

Come on. Have some guys playing on Raven Down.

So even after all the DLC, they shut down the dedicated servers anyways? Fuck you Epic, and enjoy one less customer.

Looking forward to playing horde on Jacinto. In gears 2 we used to put heaps of shields up top and build a wall. Should be interesting now that we have actual equipment.

However, I don’t think this is the last DLC pack EPIC plans to put out for Gears of War 3. There might be Beast Mode DLC in the future, but it won’t be part of the season pass. On the contrary I’m happy that Jacinto is making its way to Gears of War 3, and Mechanic Baird as well.
