Get Early Access To Gears Of War: Judgment's OverRun Multiplayer Mode

Gears of War: Judgment's OverRun mode lets two five-player teams alternate between playing as COG soldiers and Locusts, and the objective-based mode is being included as a GameStop pre-order incentive.

Those who pre-order the game as a PowerUp Rewards member will get four-days early access to the mode starting on March 15 in advance of the Xbox 360 game's March 19 debut. If you've already pre-ordered it, don't worry, as you're covered retroactively.

Also, any multiplayer XP you get in the mode will carry over once the game comes out for the first week following its release.

Take a look at OverRun mode in action and get some pointers in our Gears of War: Judgment cover story hub below (click the banner to enter).

  • I pre ordered soon as I found out you could. Can't wait to play this. Hopefully People Can Fly won't let me down.
  • I wonder how it will play on ps3. Oh wait.
  • In the words of Damon Baird, "Oh Yeah!!"

  • Nice, i cant wait to play

  • Even tfhough I'm disappointed in the game's changes thus far, I still really want to pre-order the game because, well, it's Gears. Do you need any more of an explanation?
  • Sweet!! I pre-order it last week I look forward to the slaughter and the new game play with Braid and Cole on the front line.

  • With the changes they've made to the game, Gears Judgement feels like a generic TPS. I'd rather keep playing the older gears games. They've completely sold out.
  • No thanks.

  • It's actually only 3 days early, because it starts at 11:59 PM on March 15th. Getting 3-day-early access to a game mode I have no desire to play is definitely not going to change my mind about getting this game. As someone who has went to the midnight launch for both Gears 2 and Gears 3, I have zero interest in buying this game. They are getting rid of everything that made Gears unique in favor of a more casual approach. If I ever do get this game (the campaign DOES look good) it will be a used copy.
  • I have to have this game on PS3 !
  • I dunno' about this game. It seems... off, like RE6 did pre-release.

  • This game is going to be so bad :(

  • Anyone else think that it's completely bull to lock away parts of the game for an allotted time if you didn't pre-order from the store that paid Microsoft the most money. Or did I read this wrong? I'm hoping that's what happened.
  • Get in their early mmmmm hmm :3

  • Unfortunately this game is going to be bad.

  • You couldn't pay me to get this game

  • This is sorta cool...

  • No
