Gears of War PC Announced

It’s official: Gears of War is heading to PC.

OK, so there have been enough rumors that news of the game on PC isn’t a huge surprise at this point, but it’s the PC-specific content that makes things interesting. In Gears of War PC, players will be treated to five new chapters in a “Timgad” act that takes place just before the game’s final level (where you head towards the train), in addition to a level editor, and minor gameplay tweaks and graphical touch-ups.

The new act centers on the Brumak character that some felt was underused in the original game, and gives players more context on what’s happening and why they are moving towards the train for the finale.

For the level editor, players will be able to construct maps for single-player, co-op, and competitive games, with Epic hoping that eventually some of this user-created content may be able to make its way to Xbox Live as well as Games for Windows Live.

To see the first footage of Gears of War PC in action, as well as a 1UP Show special feature on the game, head over to our videos page, and to learn more, look for a cover story on the game in the August issue of Games for Windows: The Official Magazine, in stores soon.
