Epic Games has announced another Gears of War 3 DLC will be coming this January, equipped with 5 new and returning maps, new characters, and a new ranking system that allows players to "re-up".
The five maps are:
Academy - Academy is a new map in the Gears of War series. Academy was the military school MArcus Fenix would have attended in his younger age.
Anvil - Anvil takes us to the fortress of Anvegad, which has been destroyed by Locust.
Depths - Depths is the location where Adam Fenix was held captive all this time during the Gears of War series.
Escalation - Escalation returns to Gears of War since it was a hit in the original Gears of War. Fight on the steps of the Fenix Estate in this flashback map.
The Slab - The Slab isn't a new map, but it's not a flashback map either. The Slab is the prison Marcus Fenix was held in before Dom broke him out to join battle.
All of these maps are available to play on Multiplayer Versus, Horde, and Beast mode.
The "Fenix Rising" DLC will also feature some new and familiar playable characters. Unlock Recruit Clayton, Thrashball Cole, Savage Marauder and Savage Kantus when you purchase the DLC.
One of the newest addition to the Gears of War franchise is the ability to prestige or "re-up" as Epic is calling. Once you reach level 100 you will have the option to reset everything and return to level 1 with a new colored rank. There's three levels to go through until you can't prestige anymore. Your rank will go from red, to green, and finally gold. Prestiging will also give you exclusive weapon skins, Re-Up Plasma, Re-Up Omen, and Re-Up Electric.
The Fenix Rising DLC releases January 17th for 800 Microsoft Points, or for free if you purchased the Season Pass.
