Gears Of War 3 Goes Gold

Gears of War 3 won't be suffering any additional delays. Epic Games revealed today that the third-person shooter has gone gold.

GoW3 completes the story arc begun in the first Gears. The remnants of humanity now have two foes to deal with: the Locust Horde as well as the mutated Lambent. As always, Marcus Fenix and Delta Squad will put themselves in harm's way to save humanity from extinction.

Gears 3 will be released in North America and PAL territories on September 20th. The Japanese launch will occur two days later. The game was originally planned for an April release.

Accompanying today's announcements were a few pictures from Epic's celebration. Looks like they gorged themselves on some Gears 3-themed cake. They cut said cake with a replica Lancer, too.
