    El mejor juego de la saga por lejos, el nivel de atención al detalle es increíble y la cantidad e modos de juego tanto para 1 jugador, como a 4 jugadores cooperativo online o pantalla dividida.

    O jogo é quase perfeito. Narrativa e gameplay muito bem dosados.. Um dos melhores gráficos que eu vi junto a red dead 2... Jogabilidade ótima e fiel a saga..
    Ponto Negativo: Bugs do lançamento e conquistas com problemas.
    Modo on line não testei.

    Es un juegaso solo lo que le falta es un poco mas de carizma a los personajes cosa que en este gears ya sea mejorado comparado con la entrega anterior. Que se arreglen algunos bugs (The coalition ya esta trabajando) y dejate llevar por la aventura. Una cosa si eres un jugador nuevo trata de ver videos resumenes de la historia por que es mas compleja de lo que crees.

    Best Gears game yet! Graphics are so next gen and game play is unbelievable. Everything you have always loved about the franchise is here. The End will Shock you to your core. The Coalition has proven itself as the AAA game studio to beat.

    Com certeza o melhor da franquia. Poderia ser melhor sem os bugs nos momentos críticos do game. Percebi que acontecem mais nas dificuldades mais altas. Mas nada é perfeito! Minha nota esta baseada na história que ficou mais envolvente com os diálogos dos personagens, enriquecendo a história. Este é o caminho Microsoft. Parabéns!!!

We've been playing great single player games and great multiplayer games this generation, but there hasn't been up untill now a game with suck a good SP component AND that amazing MP component too. The last game I remember doing it was GTA V, but that came out last generation. it has an immersive story acted by extraordinary characters, it has the classic Gears gameplay but with small variations plus a lot of plesant surprises that keep it fresh. The campaign alone would be a 11/10. But then you also have Versus, Horde, Escape and a map builder, which are all great modes. There's not even the need to describe how good they are, if you played any Gears before, you already know. The gore is up through the roof. I only encountered twice the infinite saving bug, but it's fixed now.… Expand

    of course the original 3 games were the best, but this was a very good game, graphics gameplay and map design felt the way gears should. HOWEVER my only issue with this game is the story could of been cooler, like more berserker type situations and they shouldve been more indepth on kait and jd

    Personally, I believe that the talented developers of Gears 5, The Coalition, exhibits solid craftsmanship in game development. Gears 5 provide players with an engaging, albeit sometimes prolonged and tedious campaign, perfect gunplay, and a variety of game modes that may cater to a diverse set of gamers.

Gears 5 provide players with an engaging, albeit sometimes prolonged and tedious campaign, perfect gunplay, and a variety of game modes that may cater to a diverse set of gamers.

    Seeing that Gears 4's campaign concluded with a revelation surrounding Kait's relationship to the Locust, The Coalition made the correct choice of revolving Gears 5 around this character. As a result, being in Kait's shoes, experiencing her struggles, and enduring her journey was not only very personal to her but exuded a fascinating campaign for players. However, several concerns regarding the campaign's structure should be addressed. Indeed, the campaign showcases amazing moments but, there seems to be a lot of clutter that prolong the game and makes the overall experience tedious. For example, backtracking or completing several uninteresting objectives that isn't very integral to the story (much of this done over a open world setting). Furthermore, there was two pesky glitches. One was if you happened to have pressed the xbox guide button while the game decided to save, the character is locked and unable to move until you restart the game, losing all of your progress after the most recent checkpoint.

    The escape mode and Horde mode featured in these games can be quite fun with your friends; however, if you encounter a lobby of random players, you may experience a high occurrence of people quitting the game and leaving you to deal with the enemies that work as obstacles to victory. Escape, the newest mode, sees that your and your friends are intentionally kidnapped by snatchers and taken to their hive. You burst out of your pod and place a ticking time bomb that releases poison to the surrounding area and forces you to flee from the nauseous fumes. As you make your escape, you're confronted by a variety of enemies that attempt to slow and stop your progress from freedom. This is a fun and fresh idea. During each new round, the game throws a different combination of enemies at designated locations. Unfortunately, if you progressed through these same areas enough, the mode seems to grow a little repetitive. Therefore, additional difficulties and cards that can enhance the game may continue to keep things fresh but ultimately I would like to see additional maps that can add creativity to your escape. Moving on to the Horde mode, I believe that players may already be familiar with it due to its previous incarnations in older titles. Thus, too much time shouldn't be used to critic this mode. As before, have your buddies, fortify your positions, and watch out for the matriarch.

    I believe the last mode is multiplayer. I've played older iterations of the multiplayer but didnt get a chance to touch the one for Gears 5.

    Overall, I would give this game a 8/10. The campaign is solid but may feel a tad bit tedious. The Horde and Escape can be enjoyable with the right crew. So pick this one up. Its smooth, the gunplay is enjoyable, and the visuals are attractive.    … Expand

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.

GEARS 5 has united everything that is great about the series into a honed work of art. With jaw-dropping graphics and a perfectly blended soundtrack, the atmosphere of the world is uncannily captured. The character progression throughout the series is one of the most gripping parts of the story, and watching the history of the world unfold before you has given us the best entry the franchise could ask for. The physics are clean and precise, granting gratifying game play. The multiplayer never fails to deliver intense high paced cover based shooting, and seriously brutal action. Horde is even more refined, granting players even more freedom in their strategies and roles on the battlefield. Escape is different than anything I've experienced before. Willingly you go into the depths of the swarm hives and plant a poison emitter and escape from them and the growing cloud of poison starting with no more than a pistol. GEARS 5 is a must have addition for every fan of the series, and will bring new fans from almost anyone that experiences it. Rod Fergusson and The Coalition, have made the best Gears game to date, in ways the fans couldn't have ever imagined!… Expand

    Jugablemente sigue siendo muy similar al 4, y eso me chirría un poco, se hecha de menos ese sonido pesado de las armas y la brutalidad y escala de la trilogía original.

    Huge content with 5 game modes,
    Split screen and cross-network play,
    Amazing graphics and 60fps even in campaign,
    Great campaign with a very good story and impressive direction,
    Longest Gears ever,
    Best accessibility features ever,
    No paid DLC, no season pass, no lootboxes, but free content every 3 months.

    Co-op worked really well and the fact that each player has different perspectives all the way through left us talking the whole time about what we just saw. The writing and dialogue was decent and the overall story was fine, nothing hugely new or special but it services the game. A couple of emotional moments and choices to be made but this isn't going to replace your story driven games. At least the characters were really likeable. Would NOT recommend playing with a 3rd friend as the robot job is not a fun one. He is essentially your ability user and helper and has some neat upgrades which give a good reason to do side quests, but having someon play as him the whole time is boring. He functions much much better when the two players can use him as the AI whenever. I see what they were going for with this but it just didn't pan out. Taking control of the robot leaves you lacking with fun things to do - especially shooting people.

    I played on the PC and had absolutely no performance issues. There are a suite of options to choose from and customization is well beyond what's expected. There are tons of accessibility options which is just amazing to see and even as someone with no problem hearing the descriptive captions were helpful. This is definitely somthing to commend both Microsoft and the Coalition for and they really just made a superbly enjoyable game.    … Expand

A história foi abordada de uma forma muito mais profunda que os títulos anteriores, tendo personagens muito mais interessantes e uma estória que instiga o jogador a querer saber mais de tão complexa que parece ser. Com um dos gráficos mais bonitos da geração de Xbox One/PS4, a qualidade do visual do jogo é inquestionável e a adição de áreas de mundo aberto foi muito bem-vinda, contendo missões secundárias que ajudam muito no fortalecimento do robô Jack, que controlamos durante a jornada com Kait, além de terem colecionáveis com informações curiosas sobre determinados aspectos da estória do universo de Gears of War.
    É o jogo mais completo em toda a franquia, com uma robusta campanha e o multiplayer mais diversificado já visto, uma pena o jogo ter passado por diversos problemas técnicos que impactam o desbloqueio de conquistas, o salvamento de progresso, a inteligência artificial de inimigos e aliados, desconexão nas partidas online, entre outros infortúnios. Felizmente a desenvolvedora está trabalhando duro para corrigir esses problemas, a maioria dos problemas que sofri durante o acesso antecipado não ocorrem mais comigo, considerando que houve grande ambição nesse projeto e ele ainda assim continua tendo tantos pontos positivos, os pontos negativos acabam não negativando tanto o desempenho do mesmo, porém impedem que Gears 5 se sobressaía muito diante de seu antecessor quando colocamos as notas nos papéis, que teve uma campanha sólida, mas fraca e com personagens extremamente rasos, entretanto, Gears of War 4 não enfrentou problemas técnicos nem um pouco parecidos com os de Gears 5. Facialmente estabelecido como um dos melhores jogos da geração em que ele se encontra e mantendo seu pódio como a melhor franquia TPS existente, Gears 5 é disparado o melhor trabalho da The Coalition até o momento dessa análise.    … Expand

    Everything we complain about Gears Of War 4 has improved in this game such as graphics, mechanics and campaign, adding new game modes and characters literally out of this world, Gears 5 is a step up for the franchise one we could say a little underrated.
    Kait as the new protagonist is the best decision The Coalition made. Gears 5 is the exclusive that Xbox One needed :)

    So in that regard I would like to just say the new Horde mode is about 10 steps back and 2 steps forward.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ALLERTA SPOILER.
    Inizio dicendo che sono un fan sfegatato della saga. ho giocato tutti i capitoli e sto finendo di leggere i libri.

    Partiamo parlando della sceneggiatura: il gioco parte come un classico gears ed è diviso in solamente IV atti, a mio giudizio troppo pochi per poter dare molta trama anche nel caso fossero lunghissimi. A peggiorare questo aspetto c'è l'elemento open world, tanto acclamato e presentato come "rivoluzionario". Chi pensa che questo elemento sia degno di plauso è evidente che non ha visto il video "L'open world è una cosa bella" di Croix89, in quanto Gears NON è mai stato inteso come open world! Essendo un gioco che si basava sullo sviluppare la trama in capitoli ben distinti in aree diverse, questo elemento sarebbe risultato troppo dispersivo, cosa che è accaduta in questo capitolo.
    Il gioco ha ritmi troppo irregolari, inizialmente frenetico all'inizio, calmo nelle zone open world e poi un capitolo finale che sembra da fare in 5 minuti, con sparatorie ed esplosioni che manco Michael Bay; tutto per arrivare ad un finale IDENTICO a quello del 4, ovvero con boss fight senza senso e senza scopo nella trama e con un'inquadratura finale sul personaggio di Kait e sul suo ciondolo,
    sottolineando la poca creatività dimostrata dalla Coalition a differenza di Epic Games.
    P.S. :qualcuno mi deve spiegare com'è possibile che nella cutscene finale NESSUNO si chieda dov'è Clayton, personaggio amato da tutti sin dal 3o capitolo e che ha combattuto nella boss fight finale insieme agli altri gears. È impensabile che nessuno si chieda dov'è il proprio commilitone dopo una scena simile.
    P.P.S: L'unico personaggio femminile realmente interessante presentato nel nuovo gioco si chiamava Lizzie...morta nel primo atto....non aggiungo altro.

    TRAMA:
    Di trama ce n'è TROPPO POCA. Si scopre solo che Kait è la nipote di Myrrah (cosa ovvia annunciata nel 4), Che Myrrah e le locuste sono figli di esperimenti (in un luogo già visto in gears 1), che Reyna è la nuova regina, che JD sia figlio di strani esperimenti (solo dialoghi, niente di spiegato se non nei collezionabili) e che JD o Del muoia. FINE. Non si scopre null'altro di significante o di interessante.
    E il problema maggiore è che queste scene si vedono solo nei momenti in cui Gears 5 si ricorda di essere un GEARS ovvero mantenendo la modalità di sceneggiatura dei vecchi capitoli e non in quegli insulsi livelli open world.

    LIVELLI OPEN WORLD:
    i due capitoli open world sono dispersivi ed insignificanti per la trama. Si tratta di due missioni circa utili ma che impiegano un sacco di tempo; tempo che poteva essere gestito MOLTO meglio con quest che arricchiscano la lore.
    La seconda zona è un reskin in versione rossa della prima e in TUTTO il gioco ci sono circa 7 MISSIONI SECONDARIE. SETTE. Che non danno, come dicevo, nessun tipo di approfondimento di trama se non una, quella nella zona innevata riguardante i due arenati (che ora si chiamano estranei per ragioni a noi sconosciute) scappati dall'accampamento di Oscar.

    ARMI: SONO POCHE! TROPPO POCHE!. In questo capitolo hanno tolto circa metà delle armi presenti nel roaster completo della saga aggiungendo solamente: CLAW. L'arma più insulsa mai pensata, pure peggio dell'Hammerburst nel primo capitolo, La Talon: un reskin della Gorgon, La mazza Breaker carina ma nulla di più, e il GL: unica arma degna di nota e con un senso. Per il resto nessun'arma nuova, deludente.

    PERSONAGGI:
    Kait: partita come simpatica nel 4, ora è una edgy-teen che no fa altro che ricordare che lei ha problemi, che soffre e che è la protagonista. Decisamente poco carismatica (come un po' tutta la nuova squadra Delta) rispetto al vecchio leader Marcus.
    JD: presentato come protagonista del 4, ora ha subito ferite e viene trattato da str.... da tutti. Si riprende un po' a metà gioco. Ne male ne bene.
    Fahz: partito come personaggio veramente orribile devo dire che migliora parecchio e dà un tocco di menefreghismo e sfacciataggine buono nella squadra.
    Del: decisamente carismatico e un po' sapientino, in ottimo contrasto con Fahz. È stato un peccato ucciderlo.
    Marcus: pressoché inutile se non per dare consigli a Kait e Del nelle fasi iniziali.
    Baird: ha mantenuto il suo fascino e carattere; buono.
    Paduk: ritorno inaspettato e gradevole, ha mantenuto il suo atteggiamento menefreghista e anti COG.
    Jinn: ah era nel gioco? forse un paio di minuti, ma che ruolo vuoi mai pretendere dal capo dei COG?

    GAMEPLAY: invariato e buono come ogni gears deve mostrare, nulla da dire tranne sul fatto che la motosega sia sul tasto di ricarica, molto scomodo.

    Per concludere vorrei dire che pretendevo molto di più da questo gioco e ringrazio il cielo di non averlo pagato 70€ perché stando a quanto visto, non li merita assolutamente.    … Expand

    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.
