New Gears Of War DLC Leaks Early, Gets Pulled, Epic Responds
You weren’t supposed to be able to purchase the “All Fronts” downloadable expansion (with single and multiplayer content) for Gears of War 2 last night, let alone at a cheaper price. Yet, “All Fronts” magically appeared on the Xbox Live Marketplace at a lower price point last night before someone realized the switch had been flipped.
Gamers who attempted to purchase the content ran into errors and were unable to properly download the content — surprise, surprise! Epic Games wasn’t sure what happened overnight, but Gears of War official forum moderator “Flak” has since confirmed it was a bug on Microsoft’s side, both in terms of price and release.
The DLC is still scheduled for release on the 28th for 1,600 Microsoft points (All Fronts) and 1,200 Microsoft points (Dark Corners),” said Flak. “Something happened at Microsoft which we have no control over. 1,600 points is an awesome deal for all of the content. (And our guys worked hard creating it!)”
As Flak pointed out, the content is officially scheduled for July 28.
