Gears of War: Judgment's Pre-Order Weapon
In preparation for Gears of War: Judgment's March 19 release date on Xbox 360, Microsoft has announced a pre-order weapon that packs a punch.
The Classic Hammerburst is a multiplayer-exclusive pre-order weapon that fires six rounds at once. It was, apparently, a standard-issue weapon for the Locust armies on Emergence Day. Take a look at it in action in the short trailer below.
Microsoft also says that multiplayer skins (including Anya, Young Dom, and Young Marcus) will be announced for the game's pre-order campaign at a later date, and that there will also be retailer-specific pre-order content. Whether this refers to the multiplayer skins or is something else entirely is unknown.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
