The weapon’s chicken projectiles will also carpet bomb explosive eggs when the gun is firing an active reload.

All players who log in during the event from Tuesday, Nov. 26 to Tuesday, Dec. 3 will receive a free Cluckshot Boomshot weapon skin, Turkey Animal mark, Cooked Turkey mark, and a Turkey Leg mark.

Additionally, players who log into Gears 5 over the weekend from Thursday, Nov. 28 to Monday, Dec. 2 will receive free Boost and Boosted Double Stars to complete the current Tour of Duty.
