Gears Of War Season Pass Includes First Four DLC Packs

Gears Of War Season Pass Includes First Four DLC Packs

None

As of now, four expansions for the upcoming Gears of War 3 have been announced, the first pack dropping as early as November. All four DLC packs, if purchased individually, will eventually end up costing you $45. However, Epic Games will be offering a “Season Pass” deal once the game has launched on September 20th.

The Season Pass costs $30 but basically guarantees you all four DLC packs as they come out. It also gets you an exclusive “liquid metal weapon set,” though we don’t actually know what is included in that set.



In addition, a limited edition Gears of War 3 controller will also be released along with the game. The controller will feature the Gears symbol, and comes with a free DLC pack that allows you to download unique weapon skins. The controller will also possess a transforming D-Pad, like more recent Xbox controllers.

This means that Gears of War 3 might just be the most expensive 360 game out on the market today. Buying the Epic version will cost you $150. Add a Season Pass and you are looking at a 180-dollar game, with the exclusive controller just jacking up the price even more. You could buy a 3DS for less than that!
