    I don't know the last time I rated a game a 10 - I'm not convinced I've ever done it, but here we are. I think part of it is because Gears 5 is just outperforming my expectations by a country-mile. Gears of War 4 hadn't really blown by skirt up in that it was a decent Gears game with a decent story but I kept feeling like the formula was feeling a touch stale.

I think part of it is because Gears 5 is just outperforming my expectations by a country-mile. Gears of War 4 hadn't really blown by skirt up in that it was a decent Gears game with a decent story but I kept feeling like the formula was feeling a touch stale. Gears 5 would be in trouble for feeling repetitive but this time, the story is EXCELLENT, the voice acting is actually high quality, and the level design throughout it a huge win. And I'm roughly 13 hours into the campaign (almost done with it) and yet I still have the final chapters to play. The variance in gameplay, the dynamic pacing, and the deeper storytelling (with an awesome reveal of how the Locust Horde came to be) is what really puts this game a cut above. I think this game was sorely missed by a lot of gamers out there. The multiplayer continues to be roughly the same. There are some mild changes/updates, and with newer Xbox hardware everything plays silky-smooth, but otherwise, that aspect of the game seems to not be any major shift - and that's probably fine for most people. For me, the campaign becoming a bigger deal is what will make this game memorable and worthy of a replay. I know campaigns aren't always the highlight with social/multiplayer play being such a key focus these days, but Gears 5 has a story to tell and it's definitely worth tuning in for. If you're just trying to push through and not sink too many hours into that part of the game you'll be happy to know that there are ways to bypass "accessory missions" which are meant to equip you better down the road but are not mandatory to be successful. Still, I spent more time on the campaign because I spent time gearing up. Speaking of which, the significance and utility of Jack is something of a revelation for this series by giving you some cool future-like technology without interrupting the feel of the game. Expand

    The Coalition are doing a great job with the Gears series, 4 was good and all but I think they made some great changes for 5. Having Kait as the main character is much more interesting than JD, her heritage and what implications that has for the game's world and characters is a great mystery that I can't wait to see more of in the next game.

SIN DUDARLO. Tenemos un juego de acción que funciona a 4K 60fps con una calidad técnica que sobresale sobre el resto, sobretodo porque no son solo gráficos, son físicas, partículas, personajes en pantalla, shaders, animaciones faciales...etc. la historia mejora, amplia y soluciona gran parte de los problemas que ha tenido la saga desde su primera parte. La jugabilidad es de 10, aunque yo le añadiría y cambiaría ciertas animaciones que ya están anticuadas (parecen que las dejan por nostalgia) que desentonan del resto que son geniales. Lo peor para mí es su multijugador, no por ser malo, que no lo es, sino porque no evoluciona lo suficiente, le falta ese plus que te daría ser un poco, pero solo un poco más Battlefield, (destrucción de elementos y cosas así). Por lo demás The Coalition ha demostrado ser una más que digna sucesora de la Epic de Cliff, y podría decirse que la supera. Demostró su técnica con el remake/remaster del primer Gears, demostró ser capaz de hacer un Gears clásico con Gears4, y evolucionar sin perder su esencia (cofcof God of War4 cof cof) con este Gears of War 5. ¿Hay cosas a mejorar? Por supuesto, detalles tontos en algunas animaciones e interacción con objetos por poner un ejemplo rápido. Pero sobretodo regularía el modo Locura de dificultad, porque es muy inconsistente jugando un solo jugador. También el problema de las cinemáticas que no se reproducen a 60 fps, teniendo en cuenta que son vídeos podrían haberlos renderizado a 60fps. Más allá de eso pocas pegas puedo ponerle, y no voy hacer un análisis profundo que no me pagan por ello. Simplemente que si este juego no es GOTY este año, jamás veremos un juego de Microsoft GOTY nunca, a no ser que Halo Infinite sea todavía más bestia en su género que este maravilloso Gears5. Expand

    Gears 5 is a huge package which makes it a game that takes a good amount of time to have something all encompassing to say about it but after playing all the offerings it must be said that Gears 5 makes not only a case for being a must have game for Xbox but a must have game period. A potential game of the generation to go along with 2018's God of War, Red Dead Redemption 2, and othersGears 5 is a huge package which makes it a game that takes a good amount of time to have something all encompassing to say about it but after playing all the offerings it must be said that Gears 5 makes not only a case for being a must have game for Xbox but a must have game period. A potential game of the generation to go along with 2018's God of War, Red Dead Redemption 2, and others mentioned in the same breath.

    The coalition has added so much to this entry that it'd take multiple breakdowns to go into the arguably important details but here I will try and summarize it all.

    The multiplayer, which has always had a difficult time being accessible to most players introduces modes like Arcade that puts a hero spin on itself introducing abilities and would-be super moves to some classes that are also new to the series. This mode creates an offshoot multiplayer mode that services players who are not interested in the pro-circuit stuff Gears of War has normally had as a staple of it's multiplayer component.

    Arcade mode deemphasis the use of the Gnasher shotgun as the biggest declaration of change from the formula for one, and adds varying range to the engagements with the aforementioned abilities while making use of the longer range weaponry that's tuned differently in the standard multiplayer modes to accommodate the Pro scene.

    That said, the traditional multiplayer offerings are also on tap and rebalanced in ways that do not compromise what the pro players like while also creating a slope to the high side of the skill climb. Tweaks like lowering the clip of the gnasher while also creating a path for use for ranged weapons by having their behavior controlled by the players ability to understand it's roll in the game does wonders to make the game learnable without expecting someone to master the gnasher or die.

    This comes from removing the random shooting patterns in the ranged weapons and replacing them with patterns that must be learned to get the most out of the shots taken for example. This leads to a multiplayer experience overall that is as approachable as a Gears game has ever been by remedying the normal mode making its skill slope non-intimidating AND creating an alternate mode for those who want something entirely different while still remaining a top tier third-person shooter.

    The third mode in the package is Escape, this is the sleeper hit mode within the entire game as it is a run-based missioned structure mode where instead of defending you and your friends are on the offensive moving through a "level" clearing out enemies on your way to escaping.

    The premise is you and your team have set off a toxic bomb within an enemy base, what you and your team must do is get through the level fast enough to outrun the poison gas creeping up behind you as you push towards the exit. These levels are varied and almost limitless in their potential as there are almost infinite versions of them due to the sheer amount of layouts The Coalition (the studio that made the game) has created for it. It is about as excellent as a co-op mode there is since it borrows from such concepts from games like Left 4 Dead, Evolve (minus the player controlling the enemies), World War Z, or the strikes in Destiny 1 and 2.

    What adds to this mode even more is that you total control over custom matches to control and create your escape mission as you see fit, think Mario Maker but in Gears of War, it is excellent.

    Horde mode has also been revamped to make it so much less of a tedious grind to level up and make your way to the higher difficulties. In Gears of War 4 the biggest complaint was that you had to level up your way before being able to complete the higher difficulties whereas here in Gears 5 the classes and defenses are complimentary hybridizing the best of previous horde modes creating a far more varied experience depending on the groups skill as opposed to it being a damage check dungeon type encounter. The progression here is deep as classes, skills, and defenses all return with their own compartmentalized progression for your to sink your teeth into. This allows for every run to be meaningful no matter where you and your team are in your progression while also incentivizing you to make it to the top of a class before doing it all over again with a different class as well.

    This leads to progression overall, which should be commended here, it works like I mentioned above across the board. There is no "barrier to entry" so to speak to any of the games modes.

    You're never working to gain access to the modes or their respective challenges but always enticed with worth while improvements and progress to compliment all you take part in.

    Now the campaign, I will not say a thing here other than to say go in blind and see it for yourself. It is grand, it is a spectacle, it is also the most well written and executed Gears narrative since we first got introduced to this world.

    Cheers and enjoy!

    Haven't even finished it and I honestly never thought I'd play a Gears game that felt as good as this. Mostly cause it manages to be exciting and great in every way after so many "episodes".

    Gameplay, graphics, audio and level design both in SP and MP are phenomenal. And I don't know what happened but the MP feels great somehow and better than before. Can't put a finger on what has

    And let's for once applaud the free DLCs. Keep it up MS studios.

    Отличная игра, красивые уровни. Лучшая игра в 2019 году.
    Запускал на ПК в 4К, но там мыльно как то. Наверное HDR на XBOX ONE X делает картинку заметно лучше.

    A strong adition to one of my favorite series. Hardcore action, variation and so much meat on the bone regarding campaign AND multiplayer content (something I usually dont play in other games) like Horde, Escape etc. Nice!

    Gears 5 is one of the best games of the year and my favorite Xbox One game. The gameplay is extremely entertaining and the story solid with several epic moments. It is far superior to Gears 4.

    Iniciei a campanha do Gears 5 logo após terminar a do GoW4 e o salto de qualidade é absurdo! No Xbox One X os gráficos e a fluidez do jogo estão sensacionais. Parabéns a Coalition pela otimização do game, parece até uma amostra do que será a próxima geração dos consoles.

    And just a little advice to all the pathetic fanboys that come on here just to give a game on the opposing system a bad rating out of spite--get a life! I still can't believe that people can be so petty. I originally gave this game a 9, but I decided to get it a 10 to negate some of the negative ratings from people that I'm sure haven't even played or have no intention of playing the game.

    This is probably the best Gears of War I have played since the original and is definitely a more deserving sequel than 4 was. There's plenty of new added to the old to satisfy original fans as well as entertain those new to the series. Horde is probably my favorite mode.

    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.
