    The graphic quality is incredible, the history is also and above all cooperative. the bad thing is online, on xbox there are not many people, but luckily there is crossplay with pc.

    O jogo é bom porque saiu na game pass? Não, infelizmente a história é rasa, personagens sem carisma, resumindo, Gears vem perdendo sua essência desde o 3.

    JOGAÇO!!! De tirar o fôlego. Alguma problemas técnicos no lançamento que foram corrigidos. Melhor gráfico da geração sem a mínima dúvida. Quem gosta de shooter obrigatoriamente vai amar Gears 5. A história da campanha não é totalmente conclusiva deixando margem para um Gears 6.

    I have been a long faithful fan of this saga, Gears 5 is no exception. This new release its fair good as overall. Here a few things I don't like; they now sell everything (skins), the server is still failing (which is really, really bad).
    Things I like; they have been making modifications and upgrades continuously winch is good, characters skins are now more realistic

    I played the game on xbox series x, it was the first game I played on the console and I loved every minute of it. I have played almost all of the gears games and this one might be the best. The story, gameplay, graphics, visuals, and music are all amazing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This Tour of Duty feels like a cheap Battle Pass Especially with this weekly character buying sh!t, Escape should be something new but it falls flat after 1-2 rounds. The critic's and the players who rate this game 10/10 clearly didn't played the real ones. The Wall Bounce which is a bug, now sold as a feature(well that's one thing they learned from Bethesda) They should remaster Gears two(just graphics) and compare wich one gets a bigger multiplayer base. Problem is they afraid to do it.… Expand

    Otro imprescindible más de los XBOX GAME STUDIOS ésta vez de la mano de The Coalition. Un gran trabajo a nivel tecnico, los gráficos en 4K son realmente espectaculares en One X, la trama esta muy bien llevada. La variedad de escenarios muy lograda. Y sobre todo la acción, es que está a otro nivel sin lugar a dudas. Obligatoria su compra. En gamepass dia 1.

Solo por poner dos puntos negativos estos serian 1) IA mejorable, especialmente en los aliados que van bastante a lo CoD, están hay para dar vida al guión pero en combate solo sirven para estorbar y pronunciar frases o advertencias obvias y 2) el juego se queda a mitad de la historia, esto no es del todo malo en mi opinión porque al menos no es como la historia del 4, que básicamente no entiendes que fue lo que quisieron mostrar (casi nada), pero si te deja con muchas ganas de más al finalizar la campaña y un deseo un poco insatisfecho de terminar y dar un cierre. Un juego que en mi opinión esta a la altura del 3 pero todavía no llega al 2 por lo anteriormente mencionado.… Expand

    Apesar da história não ser muito complexa, é uma excelente narrativa, personagens muito carismáticos e uma aventura bacana, diversas mecânicas e uma ótima variação de cenários e um final trágico, pra mim é um dos melhores jogos de 2019.

    Finally they make a campaign that's nice and long. I was so disappointed with the early Gears games for being sickeningly short.

    It’s one of the games that tries to be more open world and more RPG like, and it turns out to be pretty good.

    In a world similar to the European Middle Ages, the feared yet revered Holy Knights of Britannia use immensely powerful magic to protect the region of Britannia and its kingdoms.

    They were defeated by the Holy Knights, but rumors continued to persist that these legendary knights, called the “Seven Deadly Sins”, were still alive. Tem years later, the Holy Knights themselves staged a coup d’état, and thus became the new, tyrannical rulers of the Kingdom of Liones.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For the large majority, this game is brilliant. By allowing players to have a greater range of 'independence', the game develops its own unique identity with the introduction of side missions and other optional tasks to complete in a variety of newly generated areas. The games story also excels by putting Kate at the forefront and developing her character immensely, whilst also sticking to the roots of what the franchise is grounded upon. Furthermore, giving the player an option that impacts the story as a whole in the final act was a very unexpected yet brilliant concept that many games before have utilised to entice a fan base. The only set backs in my opinion without spoiling too much would have to be almost the entirety of the first act as it doesn't really add that much to the overarching story in some ways, as well as the open areas feeling a tad too empty in places. However, this is an easy fix for the future games and was definitely a risk worth taking! This is an 8.5 score game once you get used to the game mechanics. Highly recommend for people who enjoy story-driven FPS games… Expand

    uma continuação boa da série. porém, meio repetitivo. mais do mesmo. técnicamente sem retoques, mas a The Coalition já deveria pensar em uma nova IP para alternar lançamentos com Gears.

    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.
