'Gears of War 3' new DLC driven by player demand, says Epic Games

New Gears of War 3 content would be considered if demand is high, says Epic Games.
Director of production Rod Fergusson said that the firm will "never say never" to new downloadable content, and that it's "driven" by whether players want it.
"It's kind of a 'never say never' perspective. We've completed the obligation for those with the season pass, so it's really now all about community demand and those sorts of things and what people want," he told Digital Spy.


"But I mean, it takes a lot of effort to create DLC, and in terms of internal resources and what we're focused on, that kind of stuff. It's really driven by player demand. If players are dying for it and they want it, then it's something that we can definitely look at."
Fourth DLC pack 'Forces of Nature' marks the fourth and final content pack for Gears of War 3's Season Pass, which saw DLC discounted to fans who purchased it as one set.
'Forces of Nature' will feature five maps, including two remakes from previous games, as well as new character and weapon skins, the return of Guardian mode and new Achievements.
It will be available from March 27 for 800 Microsoft Points (£6.80 / $10).
