Epic has announced that it will be hosting a special Gears of War 2 online event in the run-up to Valentine’s Day on February 14th, featuring double-XP for all participants for a variety of game types and activities.

Posted up on the Epic Games forums, the Gears of War 2 Valentine’s Day event will take place between the 8th and 14th of February (although it hasn’t been decided whether or not it will be a full week, or just a three day event) and will reward you in the following ways:

• Revives are double points in all game types
• Wingman is double normal XP (4x XP)
• Horde is double XP

So show your ‘love’ for your fellow Gears of War 2 player, and chainsaw them in the face this Valentine’s Day.
