    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Gears 5 is the exact Gears of War game that i wanted for years.

    After Gears of War 4, one thing became clear to me. It was time for this franchise to evolve. I'm glad to say that the Gears of War franchise finally evolved. And it's amazing    … Expand

    Great story. Amazing graphics. Open world bits are fun to explore. Definitely a return to form for the gears series.

The sheer amount of bugs in the game warrant significant score decreases alone. Since launch I have been unable to complete a full Escape or multiplayer match without being booted from the game due to the shoddy online service being woefully unprepared for the game's (staggered!) launch. The power taps in Horde mode often drop under textures making them impossible to interact with -- the problem sometimes corrects itself when they're destroyed and can be respawned. The same thing happens with some of the fortification textures. Campaign is not free from bugs either, from the infinite load bug (which requires a full console reset to fix) to the X interact not functioning bug.

    That's before getting into the lackluster story and so-so gameplay that's more schizophrenic than ever. The Coalition couldn't decide whether they wanted a linear cover shooter (which is what made Gears popular in the first place) or an open world collect-a-thon, so they tried to incorporate both. Poorly. Cross-play multiplayer between console and PC in Gears 4 was a crapfest, so it comes as no surprise that all of the same issues (and more) exist this time around as well.

    Sure, it's still decent, even with the political pandering being wielded like a bludgeon by the story writers, but is it on the same level as the original three? Not even close.    … Expand

    Gráficos impecáveis, história aprofundada e a presença de um modo multiplayer balanceado divertido e que roda a 60 quadros por segundo, gears 5 é um jogo sensacional e tem muito potencial no mundo dos e-sports.
    É impressionante o quanto os sonystas estão tentando derrubar o game apenas por ser um exclusivo da Microsoft

    Absolutely stunning game and achievement for the Coalition.
    Gears5 catapults this studio into god-tier developers and sets the bar very high for all the other Xbox Studios.
    It is, in my opinion, a system seller, it's that good......10/10

    Grande jogo, elevou a franquia gears a outro patamar! Mesmo com mudanças, você sente que está jogando gears igual aos antigos. Gears 5 é um dos melhores da série, e é um forte concorrente ao goty desse ano, talvez o grande favorito

Very surprised as I am not a major Gears of War fan overall.

    I recently played through Gears 4 and enjoyed it along with Kait's story. So I was looking forward to Gears 5 to see how it played out. I was not disappointed.

    Graphics: Absolutely incredible looking game, and a pretty solid 60 FPS Frame Buffer. Smooth game.

    Audio: Extremely well done, guns sound great, enemies, music composition and timing, all excellent.

    Story: Solid as even some of the top tier games this generation. I was engrossed in the story! I was literally in shock and awe near the end of the game. It was literally jaw dropping. God of War meets Contra meets a massive blockbuster action movie. I could not believe it. The game was also much more emotional than previous entries, with some choices and arcs that are truly deep, and, in some cases, tough choices to make. It was a very involved story that did not feel generic.

    Gameplay: Gameplay typical of Gears with some new, very well done mechanics such as Jack, your AI assistant. Some new weapons, the Lancer GL is bad ass. Overall, gameplay is very solid.

    This game is a must play to me, even if you are not a huge Gears fan. I took some points off for various things that all added up, such as some issues in game with graphics, clipping, mapping, some disconnects in co-op. I also think the COG's need their own flashlight instead of just relying on Jack, that was rather frustrating. They also need a photo mode! This game BEGS to have one! Also, the new open world design in certain areas was a fun addition, but I feel like it was sparse overall in terms of exploration. They give you side objectives, but there are no random encounters in the open world, which made traveling kind of dull after a while.

    Overall, I give this game a 9/10. I think The Coalition did an incredible job, and I cannot wait for the next entry in the series! This game is one of my top 5 games of the generation, alongside God of War, RDR2, Spiderman, and the Forza Horizon entries. Do yourself a favor and give Gears 5 a play!    … Expand

    A história está magnífica, assim como os gráficos e a jogabilidade. E escolher a Kait como o foco principal da narrativa foi uma escolha que deu muito certo!

    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.
