Epic will release the next Gears of War 2 map pack, the Snowblind pack, on March 31, it has been confirmed.

The pack will add four new maps to the game's thriving multiplayer mode, Grindyard, Under Hill, Courtyard, and Fuel Depot - the last of which is a remake of a favourite from the original.

A patch being released a week before that, on March 24, will change the game's current ranking system for an improved experience points-based system, allowing players to level their status up to level 100.

Drop-outs suffer an experience point penalty, and Epic will introduce an auto-balancing system to replace AWOL players with bots, to even games out on the fly.
