    Much more expansive than the first 4. Beautiful graphics, gameplay is familiar yet refreshing. Standard of how Microsoft AAA games should be

    So going into playing this game. I wasn't really to sure how or if the changes would be good.

    Well they aren't just good. They are spectacular. The visuals in this game are by far and away the best console visuals of this generation. At 4k@60fps The Coalition have outdone themselves. Facial animations are the best in the industry. Voice acting incredible. Storytelling top draw. And the    So going into playing this game.

    The added RPG elements are great tactical additions. And the open hub areas where you can explore add some nice downtown between the action.

    I haven't played the multi-player yet. But purely based on the campaign, it's one of the greatest campaigns this generation has seen on any device.

    Do yourself a favor if you don't have an Xbox get one with Gamepass and enjoy this masterpiece. If you have a gaming PC capable of 4K visuals., you need to right now get Gamepass and play this game.

    Muy espectacular en todos sus apartados.
    Graficamente de lo mejor en la generacion. La historia de los nuevos (y viejos) gears aumenta mucho su nivel en el guion y en las personalidades de cada personaje.
    Añadiendo frescura a la saga con las nuevas opciones y modos de juego hacen a mi gusto el mejor juego de la Xbox One hasta el momento.

    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.
