The "Fenix Rising" map pack for
Gears of War 3 will decorate players who are already well-versed in rolling shotguns. The new add-on, due on January 17, 2012, for 800 MSP ($10), adds five new maps, four character skins and "Re-up," the
Gears version of
Call of Duty's "Prestige." Here, it allows players to rank through level 100 multiple times for "exclusive emblems and weapon skins."
The Re-up can be done three times to unlock the following weapon skins:
-
Re-Up Plasma - Animated flowing plasma in gold.
-
Re-Up Omen - Shiny, red Omen.
-
Re-Up Electric - Animated, golden electric shocks.
"Fenix Rising" is the third of four packs bundled with the $30
Gears Season Pass. The "underdeveloped" campaign DLC,
RAAM's Shadow, was the most recent release, coming after the co-op focused "Horde Command Pack."
