About

Forces of Nature is a DLC installment for Gears of War 3 that was released on March 27, 2012 for 800 Microsoft Points. Based around weather and natural disasters, the Forces of Nature DLC packs five more maps, four additional characters, seven new weapon skin sets, and the introduction of "Elemental Cleavers"; Easter-egg weapons that are hidden on Horde playthroughs on Forces maps that each have a different elemental property. Finally, after examining community feedback, a classic Gears of War 2-era gametype, Guardian, is making a comeback.
