Nov 8, 2019Boring game! It's like gears 4.1
Multiplayer and campaign are all broken and the 6 year bans are just absurd. Don't get me started on the microtransactions....greedy Microsoft back at it again. Dont buy this game! -

Jun 19, 2020There are so many bugs! The characters and story were also just not as compelling as the previous games.

Nov 21, 2019"Gears of Opinionated Alt-Chick" is not what fans of the series want. Get woke, go broke. If you want to be successful, you have to cater to the fanbase that brought you the success you had, instead of catering to SJW's who don't even buy your games. There is nothing cringier than being forced to play some feminist savior in a game that used to be about testosterone and war.
-
Sep 9, 2019The game looks good, but nothing groundbreaking or up to the standards some have been advertising. Truth be told I find the material authoring and asset definition around the environment quite average, if not below expectation. Gameplay is pretty much the same as it has always been. There is really not much to say here unfortunately. Get it on game pass, play it and move on.
-
Dec 15, 2019crashes so often in multiplayer i just gave up. otherwise it would be a good game.
-
Jul 11, 2020Gears 5 is similar gameplay wise to Gears 4 but with boring free roam and back-tracking missions in a desert on a wind sail sand boat and the story a massive SJW politics injection. The original first three Gears of War games were good, not this s***.
-
Sep 30, 2019Feels like 2009, with invisible walls every where you try to go, have complete the very short campaign but still not been given the achievement for doing it. Game feels rushed and from another time

Nov 15, 2020Feels like a cash grab, it delivers the same experience that the first games, which after some time starts to become a little boring.
-
Nov 7, 2020Why did i pay 40€ for this DLC game this isen’t ewen a game is a trash DLC that is only 10h long
-
Jul 17, 2020Awful game going away from the tropes that made the game enjoyable. Unimaginative enemies, poor gameplay and trying to be something its not. The success of the original trilogy was based on smooth gameplay and a fantastic story. Why put RPG tropes into a shooter? Identity crisis, and poor story.its saving grace is it's voice acting. Such a shame for a series I loved
-
Nov 15, 2020Gears was one of the top game out there sadly Gears 5 just felt like gears 4 dlc they have lost the good old days of gears 1 2 and 3
-
Nov 22, 2020Very good graphics but poor gameplay... Microsoft have so much money but don't use so well like sony does.
-
Oct 5, 2019Huge pile of trash compared the the original 3 the Multiplayer was the same but I came for the story sjw trash
-
Sep 17, 2019Didn’t like the game at all, and it’s still filled with bugs. Thank god for gamepass, so I’ll advise everyone just to do the same, if you really want to try it

Jul 27, 2021The most overrated tras* game ever.
The graphics and gameplay of this game look very outdated tbh. -
Sep 9, 2019Whilst trying to innovate from previous games I personally couldn’t connect or feel any engagement to the campaign or characters, the multiplayer was okay but again couldn’t engage, I’m sure many people love the game it’s just not for me

Sep 23, 2019looks like the majority of negative reviews have been purged only 200 or so left, should of been in the thousands of negative reviews, but some one has been shilling.
-
Dec 14, 2019Man this would have gotten a higher score had it of not been for all of the bugs. Campaign locked me out at least 7 times during crucial moments.
-
Sep 9, 2019jogo bugado e a mesma coisa de sempre abaixa e atira enjoativo grafico quase igual do 4 personagens sem carisma historia fraca igual o 4
-
Sep 11, 2019Terrible. Filled with bugs and glitches on top of HORRIBLE, anti-consumer, predatory micro-transactions. How far Gears of War franchise has fallen, no wonder they changed the name to Gears 5, this isn't true Gears of War and it doesn't deserve that name, this is just another terrible product from Xbox Games Studios.
-
Sep 29, 2019Another game with **** controls. I'm really getting sick of the sluggish, brute shoot-em Up's.
-
Nov 8, 2019The game is very boring and repetitive, another generic thirst person shooter. Its like microsoft can only make gears, forza and halo
, the rest is just trash like state of decay or crackdown 3. -

Dec 17, 2019Dissapointing game, i expected more from a ""big"" company, very very garbage of game
-
Nov 24, 2019The Story for this game RUINS the entire franchise! This is a soulless effort that goes out of its way to insult the FANS! No one should be happy about this train wreck!

Sep 10, 2019To play all the game modes that Gears 5 offers, you must have internet and an Xbox Live Gold subscription... Total trash. Lost Time.
-
Sep 8, 2019Horrible game.
Bunch of glitches and bugs. Game couldn't save after hours of spending time with the Hord Mode. All progress lost. Characters are one dimensional and boring. Dialogs are cringe as hell sometimes. And barely bring the story forward. -
Sep 6, 2019A decent game with serious networking problems. Co-op is virtually unplayable with no end in sight, devs have been working on it for two days now with no improvement, cannot play as a team for more than 5-10 minutes without someone being disconnected. Unacceptable.
-
Sep 8, 2019Was playing fine,spent 3-4 hours 3 person coop horde mode all the way to 50 (intermediate) got the achievement but got an error code basically game cheated me out of my match exp , if I could with the bugs that they should have corrected after the beta but instead shadowbanned users on reddit posting credible feedback , this game deserves a negative score as of this moment

Sep 8, 2019Awful game! Extremely short and it's just the same boring Gears which hasn't improved since the first couple of games which were a decade ago.
-
Sep 7, 2019Looks great, plays ok for most of the time has some annoying bugs like getting stuck and teleport and some of the physics make no sense. The "open world" traversal seems pointless and even though it looks great gets boring quickly. Micro transactions and day one dlc is jokes
-
Sep 7, 2019Repetitive, bland, buggy, ugly graphics, ugly character models, Microtransactions. Broken Gears.
-
Sep 7, 2019Otro juegos de disparos mas que solo ponen graficos y a disparar !! Aburrrido hasta decir basta
No pongo cero porque ningun juego merece el cero pero si que póca imaginacion!! -
Sep 8, 2019The multiplayer is forced crossplay meaning if your on xbox and are vs ppl on PC, you're screwed. Also plagued with people hacking on PC and the game is riddled with broken achievements.
-
Sep 26, 2019Mais do mesmo, já encheu o saco. Toda vez dou uma nova chance pra franquia e toda vez é o MESMO jogo. Palhaçada tem limite

Nov 11, 2019Jogo lixo, mesma porcaria toda a vez, só to jogando pq paguei 1 real na gamepass pq o jogo é uma verdadeira porcaria,o Xbox é o flop da geração infelizmente!
-
Nov 9, 2019TC can only try to take advantage of fans for so long before they bail. Gears 5 was rushed to release and full of bugs and cash grab tactics. Not only are the devs delusional about the game being broken, they pump out base content like curb stomps and expect to charge real $$ for them. TC has destroyed Gears, only hope is Gow2 UE. Gears 5 is a disgrace to the Gears of War legacy.
-
Sep 11, 2019Was hoping for more it got stale and the open world felt empty and to mutch dead time between combat. They need to put the gears fransice on hold one if tbe best parts was the graphics but graphics dont make a game good
-
Nov 8, 2019classico gears tutto uguale grafica un po migliore dei predecessori ma niente di che storia banale..
bocciato -
Nov 12, 2019generic and boring story and boring new characters... nah compare to old trilogy only thing thats got better is graphic... other than that new trilogy is waste of time. New characters are pointless and enemies are bad rip off

Nov 9, 2019Incrivelmente clichê, mais uma sessão de recompensa constante a cada minuto pra fazer vc gostar do jogo, sinto muito, não me convenceu

Sep 6, 2019El juego se me ha augurado en plena partida y no soy el único. Gráficos notables pero todo lo demás está muy visto. Cubrirse y matar lo he visto ya millones de veces

Nov 12, 2019Gears 5 is an irredeemable piece of garbage that should serve as a warning to publishers who give developers carte blanche to create ‘art’.
-
Sep 6, 2019After all this time I was expecting some real improvements but it feels more like a Gears 4.5 than a new game.
It looks great, the characters have the same great charisma but the whole campaign feels the same year after year.
I hope to see a real new Gears for the next generation. -

Sep 6, 2019Les barils rouge avec les ennemis qui planquent à côté en 2019 c'est non. Le level design paresseux c'est non. Je met 4 point pour les graphisme.

Sep 6, 2019Quanta raiva em ver produtoras rendendo-se a patrulha da lacração, já vi produtoras brigando por sua independência e por sua liberdade artistica, infelizmente não foi o caso desta, acabaram com a franquia, história muito forçada para caber dentro da nova filosofia. Ridiculo, muito triste
-
Sep 7, 2019dlc de gears 4 mas do mesmo cheio de bugs cade o desafio de verdade muito facio
-
Sep 6, 2019Same old with a new coat of paint, does nothing new for the series. If you played the others there's no need to play this.
-
Sep 6, 2019Juego repetitivo,mala historia y muy continuista,no hay innovación en nada y es todo muy similar a sus antecesores.
Un hilo argumental predecible y aburrido y mecánicas toscas. -

-
Sep 12, 2019Gráficos excelentes mas o game é a mesma coisa do anterior, corredor atira atira nada de mais. Fora os bugs que teve até perdi o save.. história fraca final fraco. Preferia o marcus

Oct 23, 2020Gears Of Woke 5: yet another game with kickass women and manservants. What could possibly go wrong? And so another one of the few remaining non-feminized game series goes down the drain.

Mar 16, 2020Gears 5 is an odd thing; it's neither a grand leap forwards, nor a complete rehash of what came before, and therefore sits somewhere in the middle of the two. On the whole, the improvements do outweigh the negatives (the non-linear approach to campaign levels and the small changes to horde mode being some of the most notable), and while The Coalition still has some work to do to really make the series its own, this is a far bolder and more varied approach the relatively safe Gears 4. If you love shooters and you want a good place to jump back into the series, this is perfect place to work the rust out of your lancer.
-
LEVEL (Czech Republic)Feb 28, 2020Gears 5 offers a solid portion of brutal action with several refreshing new things. If you have intentionally avoided games from this series, the fifth sequel probably won´t change your mind, but if you are looking for a quality action game and you are still a fan of multiplayer, try it. [Issue#298]

Jan 29, 2020Gears 5 proposes a breathtaking solo campaign and a generous array of multiplayer modes. Even if the recipe remains classic, we really want to go through with it. The characters are rather well written, the environments are often spectacular, and Jack the robot adds some salt to the gameplay. A visual feast and glorious action game that perfectly demonstrate Xbox One X's true power.
