Gears of War Judgment will be getting two free pieces of DLC at launch with a new map and gameplay mode. 

Players can pick up the Haven monastery in a frozen wasteland, which was once a tropical oasis. It has a asymmetrical circular layout, with branching pathways leading back to the center. People Can Fly’s Jim Brown says that the map is not safe at all.

“It makes for especially hectic Domination games because the rings are easy to access and difficult to defend,” he said.

Long sight lines mean sniper perches can be utilised thanks to the Torquebow and Breechshot, and better defended with a Boomshield, but can be countered with the Booshka or the Digger Launcher.

The other addition is Execution mode, a team-based deathmatch in which players must be executed or they’ll revive at the end of a countdown timer, robbing you of your kill.

The two content drops apparently come courtesy of Maxim (somehow) and will become available on April 2. Being free, they’re presumably not part of the $20 season pass. The Xbox 360-exclusive Gears of War Judgment drops in early March.
