Microsoft have announced the first piece of campaign DLC for Epic's Gears Of War 3 and its a choice most people wouldnt have expected. Known as 'RAAM's Shadow' and being a prequel to the original Gears Of War, taking place post-Emergence Day. Microsofts statement read as follows...
RAAM's Shadow drops players into the events of Sera post-Emergence Day, as Zeta Squad is enlisted to evacuate Ilima City and protect the citizens against a Locust Kryll storm. Taking on the infamous Locust leader from Gears 1, General RAAM, Zeta is led by Michael Barrick (from "Gears of War" comics fame) and comprised of familiar faces such as Lt. Minh Young Kim ("Gears 1") and Tai Kaliso ("Gears 2"), and also includes a new female comrade, Alicia Valera.
In addition to fighting as a new squad of Gears, players will step into the boots of RAAM himself, and for the first time storm the human stronghold from the perspective of one of the series' most legendary bosses.
RAAM's imposing size and strength, along with his Kryll shield, make him one of the most powerful and daunting foes in the Gears universe. We think fans are going to have a blast unleashing hell upon the poor humans for the first time in a campaign setting.
Its coming on December 13th and will cost 1200 MS Points
