Gears of War: Judgment OverRun Demo Coming in March

Microsoft has slapped a release date on the multiplayer demo of Gears of War: Judgment, which will offer players the chance to go hands-on with the game's class-based competitive OverRun Mode. Anyone pre-ordering the game through a GameStop PowerUp Rewards membership in North America, will be able to get access to the demo three days early.

The Gears of War: Judgment OverRun multiplayer demo will be available to all Xbox Live Gold members alongside the launch of the game in the US on March 19th, whereas GameStop PowerUp Rewards members who've pre-ordered the game can download the demo from March 15th. The offer applies retroactively to anyone who has already pre-ordered.

Any multiplayer XP earned playing the demo will be carried over into the main game, giving you a headstart in levelling up, unlocking medals, weapon skins and achievements. As well as three-day early access to the demo, GameStop pre-orders will also grant the 'Young Marcus' multiplayer skin and Lambent weapon skins.

Gears of War: Judgment is out on March 19th in North America, which is when the demo will also be available to all XBL Gold subs. The game will also be out in Europe on March 22nd.

I've played it! Cool

All XP earned will carry over to the actual game as long as you play your copy by the 29th March.

The Beta has only one map and the only game type is Overrun.... but it's awesome! Cool

There is a lot to get used to, but it's damn good fun.

is it out already? i thought it was just a normal demo and not a beta.

that rule sucks abit, don't know if i'll have my copy by the 29th Sad

Its a preorder bonus from GAME I think BigStu, from what I understand from the other topic iys an eatly access bonus.
but yeah how shit is that, play the demo but you gotta play the game with in 7days, so tough shit if you can't afford it before then!! Lol

yeah thats kinda harsh, i have pre-ordered mine but i can't get it on release date i have an 'estimated' delivery date of 23rd march - 2nd april, so hopefully i'll have it by then, although i may still be grinding for seriously 3.0

How come you can't get it on release date if you have preordered it?

don't know, muct be in relation to where i live, got it from amazon and after i'd paid they sent me a message saying i wasn't eligable for release day delivery. i don't mind too much as long as i get it relativly soon after release date. if they take the piss i'll be on the phone giving them hell Twisted Evil

That's bullshit that they only told you that after you paid for it, hope it arrives sharpish for you mate!
