The Gears 5: Icebound Map is one of the levels available for Versus and Horde matches. It’s one of the launch maps that were present and it’s a brand new creation for this particular entry in the series.
Description: Icebound is a larger map, with a deadly ice field in the middle. This middle ice field can be shot, freezing enemies that run over those patches or sink in. A flurry flies in sometimes too. This map features higher elevated bases above the ice field that area connected by a very open catwalk. You can slide down from the towers, one side has a pool of fish guts which douses your character in their blood. The other side of the map is open, yet split sections that funnel towards a tighter middle area. This middle area can be leapt out of to hit the ice field, but not entered from that spot.
