    Un desafío para los nuevos miembros de la comunidad con una mecánica innovadora para los veteranos, una historia elocuente que te deja con ganas de la siguiente entrega. El multijugsdor en un principio dejó que desear pero las últimas actualizaciones lo han mejorado y lo más importante es que esta gratis con game pass por si alguien lo quiere probar antes

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Games trash, visually beautiful but everything else is terrible. The story is complete trash and you even get the option till kill the main protagonist of the 4th game smh. Full of fake 5 star reviews everywhere. On Xbox live the only real written reviews are 1 or 2 stars and apparently they keep getting deleted.… Expand

    Although it no longer has the brilliance of the original Gears of War trilogy, with a story and characters that are not as impactful, the idea of ​​expanding the scenarios a little further is very welcome and the gameplay remains very fun and dynamic. Undoubtedly one of the best Xbox One exclusives!

    Is a really good game, amazing franchise, and pretty good campaign. However, I'm giving this game a low score because the main focus of the game is the multiplayer pvp, and it's just awful.

    Basically the same game with gears 4, generic story and cover based shooting gameplay. Not to mention the forgetable characters. Don't buy this game unless you are on gamepass!

    The Gears of War franchise, which has been quite as of late anyway, may finally be dead. This game is an absolute chore to play.

This game is an absolute chore to play. From a ridiculous, unresolved story all the way down to ruinous basic gun play, Gears 5 is a total disaster. I found myself compelled to finish it only because I was playing co-op with a more devoted fan; thank God it was on GamePass and I didn't have to pay for it.

    All of the weapons have insane recoil, making gun play a chore of timid burst-fire and readjustment. The new additions and even editions to old classics are for the worse. In nearly every mission involving a major gunfight my partner and I both ran out of ammo, forcing us to take reckless action to melee or otherwise kill enemies just to clear the room. The rambling plot has you criss-cross and backtrack through the same bland, empty open world. There is no leveling up and no incentive to explore and do side activities.

    The most tragic issue, however, is the incompetence of the NPCs that are forced to fight alongside you. The sole moment of excitement came when we finally got to use the beloved Hammer of Dawn; we had to restart that gunfight at least half a dozen times because an NPC would walk through your laser and cause the beam to hit and kill you instantly. On the final boss, we had to retry 5 times when uncontrolled NPC would get themselves killed. In one instance, within 3 seconds of reloading after a death, an NPC got himself killed again. A great number of unwarranted restarts will find you in this game, which erroneously focuses on squad dynamics when you cannot control the squad.

    Another nagging irritation is the lack of navigational assistance leaving you to wonder what the hell you're looking for at several points. "Jack" performs a ridiculous McGuffin where he can fly through vents to activate a terminal to open a door or something; oftentimes you'll see the switch he needs but he'll refuse to fly through any but the designated opening to reach it, regardless of how obviously other paths might work. In some cases this opening is rooms or meters away and punitively nonobvious, forcing you to mash the button giving you an environmental scan until you miraculously see the highlighted vent you need to use.

    This game is a 100% pass. The plot remains unresolved and whimpers to an end with a shameful sequel bait. Fitting that the voice actor for JD is also the worse of the two Spartacus in this pitiable attempt.    … Expand

    Me encantó la historia, si bien empezá algo lento la verdad es que termina siendo súper entretenida y muy completa, no le doy el 10 porque el mundo abierto desde mi punto de vista no le cae tan bien a la saga gears, aún así lo recomiendo altamente!

    This game can easily be described as an experience. The game looks and plays incredibly (4k 60fps & HDR) the sound is amazing (Dolby Atmos option included) & it plays smooth. Plus, its on game pass! I recommend it, its really good. Best thing is if you have doubts just use gamepass and play it!

    Combat is fun and still as enjoyable as ever, but aside from the original characters the new characters are just missing something. Kait is solid, but JD is still lame. The "open" area is supposed to make Gears 5 feel bigger, but it's probably the worst area of the game.

    Cross play with PC should always be an option to turn off. Never mandatory.

    Gears 5 supone un cambio en la forma de contar su historia, pero más allá de eso falla en su ejecución pues su mundo se siente vacío y con misiones secundarias aburridas y que frenan mucho la experiencia.

También Kait funciona como una excelente protagonista y el nuevo rumbo que la historia necesitaba dejando a un lado la historia de los Fénix que concluyó hace mucho con la tercera entrega y que tristemente JD no supo cómo continuarla. Puedo decir con tranquilidad que es el mejor en su gameplay al hacerlo mas cómodo y menos pesado a la hora de cubrirte y apretar el gatillo, pero aun así no deja de ser el refrito del gameplay de Gears Of War 3 y que ya no plantea nada nuevo a la hora de la verdad. Gears también cae en una insaciable repetición de su narrativa y que su único modo de hacer avanzar la historia es con los descendientes de antiguos personajes como si de la nueva trilogía de Star Wars se tratase. Personalmente creo que esta saga debe concluir antes de que termine enterrada en el recuerdo de lo que fue.… Expand

    Después de haber salido la operacion 4 me parece que el multijugador de el juego a mejorado mucho ahora es excelente y casi perfecta por otro lado la campaña no es la mejor de la saga pero en general es buena bastante entretenida y en ningun momento de aburre, puedieron haber echo las partes de mundo abierto con mas cosas pero creo que en general es un aire fresco a la saga.

    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.
