The cat is out of the bag - various sources are now reporting that we'll see a slew of Gears of War free content this Wednesday, January 10th (Australian and Kiwi gamers will get the content a day later due to time zone differences).
Here's what we'll get:
* Map - Raven Down: A Raven Helicopter has gone down in the middle of a large scale battle with the omnipresent Locust Horde. Gears have taken out the Seeder and gamers join Delta Forces moving into the crash site from all angles to search for survivors.
* Map - Old Bones: In an attempt to eradicate any traces of human history and culture, the Locust Horde has emerged under Sera's Capitaline Museums and has begun to destroy them brick by brick. Each gamer's mission is to help the Delta Force recapture the museums before all remnants of humankind's existence are obliterated.
* Video: An introductory video by Mr. CliffyB himself.
* Patch: According to Joystiq, Mark Rein has confirmed that a patch for the game will be rolled out ahead of the bonus content. A list of changes and fixes can be found over here.
Of course, all of this is free - no need to break into that stash of Microsoft points.
