About this game

The Combustible Map Pack is the second downloadable content pack (DLC) for the 2008 game Gears of War 2. It includes three new fiery and explosive maps: Flood, Gold Rush, and Fuel Station.

Gears of War 2 is a third-person shooter built around tactical use of cover. Players fight through a campaign as a soldier of the Coalition of Ordered Governments, carrying a limited loadout of weapons and using cover, melee attacks, and the series' chainsaw bayonet against enemy forces. It supports cooperative campaign play and a range of competitive multiplayer modes, and introduces Horde mode, in which up to five players survive escalating waves of enemies together.

Set on the planet Sera some months after the previous game, the war between humanity and the underground Locust Horde reignites when Locust forces begin sinking entire cities. With the last major human stronghold under threat, the Coalition of Ordered Governments launches a large offensive to take the fight into the depths of the planet. Sergeant Marcus Fenix leads Delta Squad underground to strike at the Locust directly, while his comrade Dom Santiago continues a personal search for his missing wife.
