    Having finished the game twice now have to say the graphics + resolution and 60fps makes this by far one of the best looking games out their the story in this game especially one of the best in the series.

    Joguei a campanha, um primor e o multiplayer "fuga" e "horda" é a NATA do Gears 5.
    Tem pessoas que não sabem, mas o Gears 5 tem uma especie de SEASON PASS que voce nao precisa pagar, é bom demais, é tipo um SEASON PASS do FORTNITE, so que voce nao paga, basta ter o jogo.

    El regreso triunfal de la saga, no mejora ampliamente a la trilogia original, pero es un juego que debes tener si lo tuyo son los shooters en tercera persona

    Too far gone from what the series was ever supposed to be, and not innovative enough to warrant the departures anyway.

    Ridiculously irritating game.
    - AI teammates are stupid as hell and there's not much control over them in comparison to the first trilogy;
    - Small amount of memorable arenas and situations; - 2 and 3rd act are empty large locations with hub and spikes; - Secondary missions are not good enough to be proper levels/missions; - Bosses and minibosses are superboring; - The flock is buggy; -    Ridiculously irritating game.

    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

    Same old gears formula with slightly better graphics, there's no innovation in the game and it is being milked to death due to lack of another new ips by microsoft
    The controls are decent,but the online multiplayer is laggy and unreliable, alot of glitches and overall not worth the 60 dollar price tag

And microtransaction's are ridiculous. 20 bucks for 2 characters. 5 bucks for old characters. 5 bucks for character gun skins no treasure boxes and ridiculous challenges to get any unlocks. If I could get a refund i would never play this again.I would never pre-order another coalition title!… Expand

    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.

    Finally they make a campaign that's nice and long. I was so disappointed with the early Gears games for being sickeningly short. So I didn't play the later 3 games until the social distancing crap. Gears 5 is the perfect balance of action and adventure. The graphics are amazing. Deformable terrain. New guns. And great story.

    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.

    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.

    Il miglior gears of war di sempre. Un single player rinnovato e godibile, livelli di difficoltà ben bilanciati, in folle da il meglio di sé. Il multiplayer con qualche aggiunta degna di nota, sicuramente ancora il top nei tps.

    одна из худших частей серии. Кампания короткая, 1 и 4 главу делала одна команда, а 2 и 3 другая, слишком уж различаются. Режим Орды быстро приедается, мультиплеер неинтересен, Побег -скучен.

    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

    It is the best Gears of War, absolutely amazing and perfect. Campaign, horde, scape, multiplayer, you can play all of this and the graphics are one of the best of the current generation of consoles.

    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.
