The cover system, the timed reload mechanic, throwing grenades into holes to close them and prevent more enemies from spawning, a f***ing chainsaw on a gun So many great ideas in this franchise

So many mechanics were so ahead of its time for third person shooter where others copied or refined . Games like gears that offer multi single player coop horde don’t exist anymore

Will always cherish the memories I have of my brother and I playing Horde mode or multiplayer matches with bots

The death of local multiplayer is one of the worst things to happen in this industry imo. I bought Crash Nitro Fueled on PSN last night just because it has 4 player local multiplayer. And they're not even putting local multiplayer in that upcoming DBZ game, like wtf

Emergence Begins.

Experience the brutal horror of Emergence Day through the eyes of Marcus Fenix in the origin story of one of gaming's most acclaimed sagas.​
Fourteen years before Gears of War, war heroes Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago return home to face a new nightmare: the Locust Horde. These subterranean monsters, grotesque and relentless, erupt from below, laying siege on humanity itself. ​
Built from the ground up with Unreal Engine 5, Gears of War: E-Day delivers unprecedented graphical fidelity.

“Why E-Day?  That’s the moment it all comes together. It’s the heart of the Gears universe. Everything that happens is shaped by this day.” 

Fans of those mainline Gears of War games can expect to feel at home with how Gears of War: E-Day feels. The Coalition is working to recreate and improve the series’ trademark third-person action, charging between cover in life-or death situations, all set within an explosive campaign that combines satisfying gameplay and emotive, character-led storytelling. However, all this is told through a modern lens, and rooted in groundbreaking technology, giving The Coalition room to really build out those elements. It’s a careful balance – a classic Gears of War game that feels authentic next to the original, but with truly next-gen tech behind it.

“It’s going to feel like a new Gears game, because that’s what it is,” Searcy says. “It’s us revisiting the tone and the feeling of what makes Gears great, but we’re tapping into new techniques, new processes, and new technology that’s going to make the gameplay feel better than ever. It’s going to be awesome, a game that feels both truly new, and authentically Gears.”

I thought there was already a prequel

Gonna be my first gears game I play at launch. Please be good.

Haven't liked them since 3.
It's just felt meh since.

Where’s Gears 6…

Do they have two studios 🤔

Making a prequel instead was the smarter move

I mean I liked 5 but I’d be lying if I said they didn’t end in a cliffhanger after writing themselves into a corner with the choice

Maybe they really doing something crazy with 6 and it needs more time to cook

They’re going full on nostalgia bait mode huh

It’s working tho

I still want a pendulum wars game

I’ll be buying day 1 if this comes to ps5

I'm intrigued. This looked dark asf

Can't wait to see what they cooking and plus Gears 6 is also happening. That a dub

Bruh xbox clowned today

Hope it has a darker look throughout most of the game.

haven’t been feeling the brighter colors look of the last few.

If this plays like all tbe other gears then im not interested. Gears lost me at 3.

The last one I enjoyed was 2.

I don’t care s*** about the story. Just hope the multiplayer is good. But 2026

Damn. Gears 3 was the best though
