The DLC assault from the Xbox 360 third-person shooter Gears of War 3 continues.

Studio Epic Games will release another set of multiplayer maps and characters for the game on Jan. 17.

Fenix Rising also features a key tweak to the game's experience system. When players reach level 100, they can choose to "Re-up," resetting their experience and rank in exchange for special awards.

When a player hits level 100, they earn a Bronze rank icon color. They can "Re-up" three times for a Red, Green and Gold icon respectively. It also nets players exclusive weapon skins only available through this reset.

The DLC includes five maps -- Academy, Anvil, Depths, Escalation and The Slab -- each of which has been inspired by important locations in the campaign. Players also gain access to four characters: Recruit Clayton, Thrashball Cole, Savage Marauder and Savage Kantus.

Fenix Rising costs $10 as a stand-alone download, and is available as part of the Season Pass that bundles the first four pieces of DLC for $30.
