    Melhor jogo da série, história cativante, gráficos lindos, som espetacular, jogabilidade fluida, inovou com side quests, elementos de rpg, mundo semi aberto, mas sem perder a essência do que os fans gostam.

    This is an absolutely amazing game in general, not just a Gears game. It looks to be my GOTY for 2019, and I haven't even touched the Horde mode or anything in multiplayer. The graphics and gameplay are just incredible at 4K HDR 60 FPS on the Xbox One X! This is honestly a reason to buy an Xbox One X and subscribe to Xbox Game Pass, it is THAT GOOD. Well done to the Coalition on this one!

    O sistema do mundo semi aberto é sensacional,faz com que o jogador explore muito mais os cenários do jogo.
    O Segundo ato do jogo começa a esquentar é mostrar do que o jogo é capaz com cenários incríveis ,o sistema de semi mundo aberto onde você pode escolher fazer ou não as missões secundárias que ficam espalhadas pelo mapa do jogo. Em relação ao Jack,é muito importante para vários momentos do jogo com suas habilidades que vão sendo desbloqueados ao longo do jogo,e ainda é possível melhorar essas habilidades com peças que são encontradas em todo o jogo,uma espécie de "coletavel".
    O modo arcade é extremamente divertido,o modo Escape também é muito interessante!

I played on the Xbox One S and a PC with a 1050 ti. It ran fantastically on PC with a smooth, near-constant 60 fps on high however it is frame capped to 30 on the S which is because of the console limitations. The game is standard Gears gameplay but still manages to be fun. With a friend, it is even better as you can flank or be in two separate areas whereas the AI will only follow you. The weapons are unique and most are fun to use. The story is strong for most the time but it builds up only to climax in a very short manner which is annoying sequel bait. It is a fun game and is worth a play and is free on Gamepass which is awesome. Expand

    Gears 5 has been the most ambitious title in the franchise so far. The Coalition has really tried to expand upon the gameplay and the story. They have started to push the boundaries of what we know with Gears and take a few risks. They focused a lot more on story telling and giving us a reason to care about these characters. We see so much more emotional range from Marcus and company. TheGears 5 has been the most ambitious title in the franchise so far.

They focused a lot more on story telling and giving us a reason to care about these characters. We see so much more emotional range from Marcus and company. The story and character writing makes all feel so much more realistic. The open world portions of the campaign were a well needed chance to slow down to appreciate the game world. The free roam and side quests were an excellent addition to the Gears formula. The areas do feel empty sometimes, but it feels like they have built great base that can be improved upon with newer iterations of the series. The light RPG mechanics are welcomed addition as well. Using and leveling Jack up with new abilities adds even more depth to already solid gameplay. The gameplay itself is the same tight smooth 3rd person cover shooting that Gears has been famous for. Quality and smooth controls have always been a staple of Gears and the Coalition did not disappoint with 5. The graphical detail in this game is superb. On PC and the Xbox One X running at 4K 60 fps this game is a visual feast for the eyes. Multiplayer has been expanded as well and has something to offer for many different tastes. Everyone from a beginner to a hardcore gamer can find a mode to hop in and enjoy. Escape, Horde, PVP matches, there is no shortage of multiplayer sweetness. the same tight smooth controls, excellent graphics from the campaign are all present here as well. Over Gears 5 feels like a good start in a new direction. Is it perfect? No, but there is a great foundation with new mechanics and ideas that could be expanded and improved upon. Gears 5 isn't a full blown reboot of the franchise, but an evolution. It still feels like Gears in every way and the new additions only add to the experience. This is a very solid game, and a huge improvement over Gears of War 4. Gears 5 could be the beginning of a new Era for Gears games. Expand

    A big improvement for the series as well as the latest installment. Gears of War 5 is a new standart on the series and games for Xbox One.

    A new benchmark of the genre and one of the best games of the generation.
    Graphics on PC and console among the best in recent years. The best chapter in the saga.
    Huge multiplayer.
    A game that anyone should buy.

    Historia buenísima, gráficos espectaculares y rendimiento a 60FPS inmejorable. No hay nada negativo que se pueda decir de este juegazo. Además de su campaña, sus modos Escape, Horda y multijugador te dan cientos de horas de diversión con la mejor calidad en un videojuego en esta generación. Sublime!

    Gears 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.

    Gears 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.

    Gears 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.
