New Gears of War Patch Coming Soon

Filed in archive Games on March 31, 2007

Epic's Mark Rein lets us know what to expect from the next Gears of War patch in this post on the official Gears forums:

The next title update for Gears of War is currently going through the certification process. We'll have more detail about the update next week but I can tell you that in addition to fixing a whole bunch of glitches, and providing 720p for VGA users running at 1280x1024, it will contain a brand new multiplayer gametype called Annex.

There's no details on the new gametype except that "[testers say] it is our best multiplayer gametype yet."

I'm always glad to see new functionality added to a game post-release -- it's a great way for publishers to keep a game in the public eye and (as long as it's free) gamers always appreciate new things to do in their old games.
