Gears of Wars 3 outed for April 2011 release

Ad announcing game accidentally appears on XBL dashboard

Gears of War 3 appears to have been prematurely announced by Microsoft via an advert which appeared briefly on the XBL dashboard.

The ad, captured by Kotaku, bears the words: "Gears of Wars 3 Announced: The epic story concludes April 2011".

Epic's Cliff Bleszinski had been expected to announce the game while appearing as a guest on the Jimmy Fallon show yesterday, however his appearance was subsequently put back until next Monday - a reschedule that apparently wasn't picked up on by Microsoft.
