Mark Rein, vice president of Epic Games also took the time over on the official Gears forums to mention that some bug fixes would be issued before the delivery of the new maps.

Hopefully they're gonna stop people run-shooting (glitching the game) too, which really peevs me off

Fair play to epic on getting sponsorship and getting the customers free maps...I like it

More maps for me to get pwned on

I feel your pain.

Aye getting pwned by pre-pubescent American teenagers who whinge at me when I die

Getting better tho.

Can't seem to get many games hosted in the UK for some reason

Cool, I'm not the best at it (although I did own all on the multiplayer map with the Hammer of Dawn weapon last time I played it ) some new maps would be great.

Details of the Gears of War patch which will be released tomorrow are available here: http://www.xboxic.com/news/2204

Just about all the fixes that everybody was asking for!

Thats cool, gota love Epic for keeping the community happy

[Parm]

You know what us gamers are like though, we're never happy! Watch the complaints pour in!

epic are my favourite developers, right back from the original unreal tourney (i missed the boat on the first unreal) they have been fantastic at supporting their games.

roll on new map goodness

[Parm]

The patch for Gears of War is now available and you'll be prompted to update your game when you next load it up.

The new maps are still scheduled for release tomorrow.

The new multiplayer maps are also now available, as is an introductory video and a theme.

All available for free on Xbox Live Marketplace.

I've given the two maps a good go and I find Old Bones to be fantastic, very tactical. But Raven Down just isn't for me, it's very small and too frantic.
