Press Release
LONDON — July 16,
2012 — Before the rise of the Lambent, the sinking of Jacinto
or the detonation of the Lightmass bomb, there was Emergence Day –
when the Locust horde burst from the ground and set Sera on a path
toward near annihilation. Launching 19 March, 2013 for £49.99 (ERP),
“Gears of War: Judgment” brings players back to the terrifying
aftermath of E-Day, before the events of the “Gears” trilogy, for
the most intense and challenging “Gears” game yet.
Developed exclusively for Xbox 360 by Epic Games and People Can Fly, “Gears of War: Judgment” delivers a riveting campaign featuring new characters, weapons and enemies, and new multiplayer experiences like OverRun, an all-new class-based mode that combines elements of the acclaimed Horde and Beast modes pioneered in previous “Gears” games.
Tom Bissell and Rob Auten Revealed as “Gears of War: Judgment” writers
Written by Tom Bissell (journalist and author of “Extra Lives”) and Rob Auten, “Gears of War: Judgment” follows Kilo Squad, led by fan-favourite characters Damon Baird and Augustus “The Cole Train” Cole, as they defy orders and attempt to rescue the city of Halvo Bay from destruction at the hands of the Locust onslaught.
The “Gears of War” series is one of the most popular franchises in Xbox history, having sold more than 18 million games worldwide, and spawning New York Times-bestselling novels, toys, collectibles, graphic novels, and more.
