Op 6 december aanstaande krijgt Gears of War 4 een update die een hoop problemen zal fixen, maar komt voor de season pass houders ook met een aantal nieuwe goodies als twee nieuwe multiplayer mappen waar 15 jarige groot gebruikers van Clearasil je met een opgebooste shotgun in de rug schieten. Maar goed, hier is de info en video's van de nieuwe mappen.

Arriving on December 6, this update adds extra value for Season Pass holders and includes two brand new maps, "Gearsmas" goodies plus a whole host of fixes and improvements. And for anyone that hasn't picked up the game yet, it's 33% off from December 1 to December 28.

Following the release of fan-favorite maps Checkout and Drydock last month, two brand new battlegrounds will arrive with the December Update.

Speyer: Evacuated long ago, this lonely district of Speyer is a still image of pre-Locust War life. The battle for the sanctuary is a close quarters affair, but teams looking to control the sprawling academy will need to do so together. Speyer's opulent interiors and quaint plazas are best suited to longer range engagements.
Glory: A monument of military might, this COG battery was used only against the most strategic targets to maintain its secrecy. The defensibility of this fortress can be used to your advantage if captured, which includes a powerful mounted turret that can suppress the courtyard below.

Both maps will be added to public playlists starting December 13. As we say hello to Glory and Speyer, we say goodbye (for now) to Gridlock and Relic. As a reminder, all maps in "Gears of War 4" are added to playlists for free, with maps rotating in and out of public playlists. For non-Season Pass holders that want to keep playing maps no longer in rotation, individual maps can be purchased in the Gears of War store.

Updates and Improvements

Since launch, we've listened closely to fan feedback to help guide our development of updates and improvements. This latest update includes several highly requested improvements along with some new features including:

A Daily Rewards system
Improved visual feedback for damage dealt with the Gnasher
Vertical Split-Screen for Windows 10 players
Improvements to footstep audio balance, audio/video settings
A whole lot more!

We'll be detailing the full map rotation changes and Title Update notes this Friday on GearsofWar.com.

Our team continues to work on additional important features to improve the online experience for future updates, including a pre-game lobby for Core and Competitive as well as a number of punitive tools to discourage or prevent quitting. Thank you for all your feedback - please keep it coming!

Bonus Credits and XP for Season Pass Holders

With this update, Season Pass holders will earn additional XP and Credit rewards when playing the Developer Playlist during the week it's available. Season Pass holders will continue to get early access to new maps (December 6 for Speyer and Glory), and have access to all DLC maps permanently for use in Versus and Horde Private Matches. We're continuing to look at adding even more benefits and value for our Season Pass holders in the future.
