The lights are on
Epic Games has just released information regarding the content and pricing of its online VIP Season Pass for the upcoming Gears of War: Judgment.
Gears of War: Judgment releases on March 19 exclusively for Xbox 360, and if you want to experience everything it has to offer, you'll want to nab the VIP Season Pass. It costs 1600 Microsoft Point (the equivalent of $20.00 USD). This represent about a 20 percent discount over the full price of all the content purchased separately.
The VIP Season Pass will give you access to all available Judgment DLC, including "six multiplayer maps, two new modes and nine exclusive unlocks."
You will also get a permanent double XP boost (available only to season pass owners, which feels a bit unfair, but that's Epic's call) and early access to add-on multiplayer maps. You'll also get five exclusive weapon skins and four exclusive armor skins.

Nice.
Keep staying classy, Epic.
The permanent double xp isn't that bad considering you don't unlock anything as you rank up. Everyone has the same weapons.
They need a season pass because they know lots of people will stop playing quickly so if they get them to get the season pass they can make more money.

Don't be afraid to call a spade a spade...
What happened to the everything we liked in Gears 3
Execution has been confirmed for Gears of War:Judgment! Maxim sponsored the creation of two new maps and the Execution game mode where players must perform one-hit kills on their enemies to confirm death. The two maps and execution game mode will be available as a FREE download on April 2nd! Gears of War fans rejoice!
Just pre-order this game from the Microsoft store. They will give 1600 Microsoft points as a bonus
Six maps are not worth 20 bucks. I really enjoyed Gears of War 3 even though I never purchased any map packs, guess I'll do the same here.
and the greatest part is... no need to download all that content!! It's already right on the disc waiting for you, they're just gonna wait a month or two to let you play it though;)
Get used to this guys. This is only a glimpse of what we will get when PS4 and Xbox 720 comes out. Nonetheless, I love this series so i will end up forking the money for this. I just hope they bring some classic maps from gears 1 again like canals, fuel depot, clock tower, and gridlock.
