▪️Not a spin-off but a new entry in the mainline Gears of War saga
▪️The Coalition is "content" with the stories told in Gears 4 and 5 and "isn't abandoning them", but making this game was opportunity that "felt too good to miss"
▪️Team is looking to recreate and improve on the series classic cover shooting, revisiting the tone of older Gears with "truly next-gen tech"
▪️Takes place 14 years before the first game, tackling how an ill-prepared Sera responds to a surprise Locust invasion
▪️Very intentional in recasting the Locusts not simply as foes but as "living nightmares"
▪️Design team prioritized redefining the Locust Drone, which had become simple fodder as the series progressed, into "something fearsome, physically intimidating, and utterly brutal"
▪️The fear of encountering the Locust for the first time is central to the game (desperation as Marcus fights a Drone for the first time)
▪️Hints that the origin of the Lancer (chainsaw, etc) will be part of the story
▪️The narrative follows the early stages of Marcus and Dom's brotherhood, bonding over the loss of Dom's older brother Carlos (who was close with Marcus)
▪️"Over 100x more environment and character details than Gears 5", hardware raytraced lighting, reflections and shadows, next generation destruction and gore, and cutting-edge animation technology

hmmm

Need it

I’ve never really been a big fan of the series but I finished up 5 a couple weeks ago. Not a great game but it’s probably the best technical showcase Xbox has right now. I’m excited to see what they can pull off with 6.

Also 👀

too little too late

scatt op means another disaster otw

Cautiously in

WE HERE

not this time

There's a Gears of War 4 and 5??

nope
ended at 3 I'm afraid

Please make mutiplayer movement like gears 3

I wonder which ending is gonna be canon

Wrote themselves into a corner with that one fs

Kinda wish the coalition got to make the side project that wasn’t gears based

Probably the most promising studio at MS and they stuck making gears rn

Not for sale

Matrix game would be easy money

Classic incoming

A path of neo remake with modern technology and controls

Matrix multiplayer game done right
