GDC08: Gears of War 2 Announced
Microsoft finally lifted the curtain on Epic’s highly-rumoured Gears of War 2 at their GDC Keynote today. The game is slated to be released this November in a press release after the conference, which also included a nice quote from everyone’s friend, CliffyB, lead designer for Epic Games:
"To our team the original game was just a tease, the appetizer to the Gears of War characters and new style of gameplay. We were so amped to get to the next chapter, and dig deeper into the universe of this franchise. Gears of War 2 is an even bigger, better, and more badass experience than the first game, and we can’t wait to get it in the hands of eager gamers this November."
Also, the trailer that appeared at the keynote was released on Xbox Live earlier, along with a free picture pack and a free theme for your perusal, as part of Microsoft’s “Bringing it Home” initiative. Full trailer after the break.
