gears31

CVG‘s reporting that Gears of War 3′s campaign will last anywhere between the 10 and 12 hour mark. The news apparently comes from an interview it did with Epic design boss Cliff Bleszinski. As far as we’re aware, this is the first time a timescale for the story has been mentioned.

Gears of War 3 launches on September 20 for Xbox 360.

Quick Quotes: Bleszinski on people writing-off the story in Gears of War

gears33

“People say, ‘yeah, I tried the campaign, but whatever.’ Gears of War 3′s campaign is very important to us, and we’re going to have the longest damn campaign of the series in Gears 3. With these Pulp Fiction elements we’re adding, you get a better perspective of characters like Cole and Baird. But yeah, I dont get why people write it off either. (Laughs) The amount of work we put into it.” – Cliff Bleszinski speaking with Destructoid.
