The Gears of War 3 beta ends early on Monday, May 16 and Epic Games wants to remind beta participants to hang on to their game saves on their Xbox 360 if they want the characters and skins they unlocked to carry over to the retail release.
The last full day of the Gears of War 3 beta is on Sunday and the servers will be turned off at 5 a.m. EST / 2 a.m. PST. While players may want to delete the Gears of War 3 beta that was downloaded, hold on to those game saves.
You find a round-up of all the unlocks, ribbons and medals from one of our previous articles.
Players can take the following steps to ensure that the beta download is deleted without losing their game saves.
- Go to the System Settings menu on your Xbox 360
- Select “Memory”
- Select “Games”
- Select the Gears of War 3 Beta (507MB) and delete it.
While we do have some small complaints about the game based on the beta, Epic already has the game in a better position than Gears of War 2 when it was launched. It should come out nice and shiny when it releases exclusively to the Xbox 360 on September 20.
