    This is the best game in the series. It looks amazing, plays amazing, hits amazing. The story is so good and the multiplayer is the best in the series aswell.

    AMAZING!! I can't think of other words to describe this game. Probably the best game of 2019!!!! Can't believe those hater can criticize this game and give it a 0 score: they probably haven't played it and stuck their head so deep in PS 4 ass, it's the only reasonable explanation, because Gears 5 is almost uncriticizable.

    Incrível, lindo, espetacular e visceral! Gears 5 é uma obra prima. Seu gameplay é consistente, bem trabalhado e com novidades, como o "Dave" e "Jack" que são uma ótima adição e são uma nova mecânica ao jogo.

O Online como sempre muito bem refinado e viciante, ainda me falta o modo Escape, se mantiver a qualidade da campanha e do multiplayer convencional, tenho certeza que irei amar. Expand

    A much needed fresh look at what Gears is destined to become. With a complete package of game modes and progression that will provide entertainment for months to come. A 3 player coop and use of Jack really adds diversity to the tried and true gears gameplay.

    This game is simply amazing. I've never been a Gears fanboy, so you can take my word for it. I love it so much, that I might just go and play the previous ones in the series. It's worth playing, and the best thing is that you can get it for free with Game Pass.

    Gears of War 5 continues the stellar performances of the previous cast where Gears 4 left off. As you navigate the most diverse and immersive terrain in the history of the franchise, it is easy to get lost in the open world as you hunt down collectables and upgrades for Jack your robot companion. The core gameplay is still intact and some quality of life adjustments have been made in order to truly move forward with the series in a way which is both honoring the past chapters and also setting the stage for new stories to be told in a diverse selection of paths in the future. The multiplayer is phenomenal as well, arguably the best in the series and it has been a real joy to enter into the fray once more having been gone from multiplayer online gaming for several years. While I wish I could give the game a perfect score, I have to dock it simply because of minor technical glitches in the form of the classic "Lancer goes through solid objects while revved up" schtick and pieces of debris and even dismembered pieces of enemy units floating or gliding across the maps on a semi frequent occassion.
    The choices the developers made with the story were superb and I cannot wait to play it again as soon as these kids go to bed. Solid 9/10 or higher and a real must play not only for Xbox players, but gamers and story enthusiasts of all kinds.

    This is one of the best games I've played in a very long time, not just for Xbox, but in general.

    After being initially sceptical with the direction Gears 5 was taking, I was incredibly and pleasantly surprised with this game.

    The story is completely fleshed out in ways I was not expecting; the open world, the additional dialogue and the character addition and development throughout was spot on. The music has always been amazing in gears, and with the addition of open world settings, the score delivered that ambient/adventure music really well, but switched into its classic score when the time was right.

    The story included a lot of 'throwbacks' to old gears games which any gears fan will feel happy about and you're also rewarded nicely for your time exploring the open world.

    There were a few points where the graphics lacked a little texture, but not often at all. The story also ended slightly abruptly (similar to Halo 2 and Halo 5) and I was actually expecting a little more, but generally the pacing was never boring a very well done.

    Online; the game is amazing, although I feel it lacks a little 'weight/intensity' when it comes to how the guns and character movement sound and feel. Pretty sure that can be addressed with an update patch if enough people suggest it as The Coalition have already shown they're ready to improve the experience however they can. Aside from that, it really hits the mark. Fast, action packed and rewarding at every moment.

    Awful game going away from the tropes that made the game enjoyable. Unimaginative enemies, poor gameplay and trying to be something its not. The success of the original trilogy was based on smooth gameplay and a fantastic story. Why put RPG tropes into a shooter? Identity crisis, and poor story.its saving grace is it's voice acting. Such a shame for a series I loved

    PACKED with great new mechanics (not highlighted in gameplay videos) exploration, the story looks interesting, with good dialogues, emotional moments, great score.

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.

The campaign by itself is probably an 8, but this title just has an incredible amount of depth and is truly a great value. To save time, I’ll just give individual scores for the main components of Gears 5:

    Graphics: 10. This is the best looking Xbox One game out there.

    Gameplay: 8. It’s more of the same in a lot of respects, but it’s still a step forward for the series.

    Sound and Music: 8.5. Some of the music tracks are truly beautiful and the soundboard for this game is excellent.

    Fun Factor: 8.5. This is probably the most enjoyable Gears to date, and while I could’ve done with more bosses, I really dig what we’ve been given.

    Depth: 9.5. With all of the collectibles and modes, I think this is one of the deepest third-person shooters in gaming history.

The multiplayer is strong, like probably the best first-party multiplayer game this generation, it doesn't reinvent the wheel but it polishes the heck out of it. It's gonna have free updates and every unlockable can be earned in game, there's a great sense of progression only a Gears, Halo, or COD game can deliver. The horde mode takes the cake for my #1 wave mode ever. Horde in Gears 2 had something competitors in the shooting genre like Left4Dead, Halo, COD, Fortnite could never recreate. Gears 3, 4, and Judgements hordes created quality of life improvements but Gears 5 is an absolut leap. Horde 5.0 represents the first true evolution for itself in the series and similar modes in other shooters. Escape is just the shockingly enthralling cherry on top. Gears 5 is a game that goes above and beyond my favorite game in the series, Gears of War 2. The Coalation deserves a round of applause. Incredible value for a $50 purchase or $2 sign-up fee for gamepass. Expand

    Gears 5, es un juego de lo mas solido en cuanto a Gameplay, difícilmente encontraras otro Shooter tan bien balanceado y con un gameplay que se reinventa, de lo mejor de XBOX.

    L'ho provato su un PC abbastanza potente e, francamente, è una delle migliori port che vedo da anni. Hanno faticato a fare un buon lavoro per la comunità dei PC, cosa che molti non hanno fatto durante l'attuale generazione. Grazie XBOX. Ti meriti il ​​punteggio più alto. Daje Marcus Fenix!!!!

    I'm in Act 1 chapter 3 and so far the story is engaging with no signs of slowing down. I'm playing through on the hardest difficulty and it is a good challenge without being over the top difficult. Maybe I will update after I try horde mode. By the way it is a beautiful game on my x.

    Can’t stop thinking about this game. Looks and sounds amazing. Everything you want in a big budget action game. Play it in your theater room with the surround sound cranked. I don’t understand how anyone could give this less than a nine.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game literally blew me out of the water to the point that I'm here, on metacritic to give my review. Never in my life have I ever been around so much toxic people on Twitter and Facebook bashing everything Xbox. I've read the so-called "negative" reviews and let me tell you that this game is truly amazing and deserves a 10! Right from the start the campaign opens like a Blockbuster movie! the first act of this game reminds me of metal gear solid 2 in the best possible way! You start off as a JD Fenix for the first act of the game! I don't want to give away too much but it is amazing! The rest of the game you play as KAIT and that too is amazing! the graphics are on a whole nother level and I'm so surprised to see so much Fidelity and detail to this game without any hiccups! The combat feels so redefine and fresh and I really love the new elements like using Jack and upgrading him! Plus seeing Carmine as an older fellow makes me smile! The coalition really put the time and effort into this one! the dialogue will make you laugh the story is perfectly paced the set pieces are jaw-dropping the character Dynamics reminds me of a long going movie franchise that we love so much! Plus callbacks to gears 2, 3, and judgement are the icing on the cake! The soundtrack deserve much recognition as well. the recurring themes in the soundtrack really gets her heart pumping especially the original gears of war theme! I can go on and on and on but I'm learning how to make a proper review lol . In short gears of war 5 does live up to the hype and please disregard any negative people online that are bashing this game for the sake of being on Xbox. Microsoft and the coalition if you are reading this my hat is off to you! Thank you for making this game possible and I can speak for the whole fan base when I say "bring on Xbox Scarlett" and "bring on the future of gears"! Expand

    Unplayable at launch for PC players...

    I already regret purchasing this title. I can think of nothing more frustrating than not being able to play your game when you intentionally setup your day to do so. Some of us don’t have 7 days to play because of work. Regardless of where things go from here, the experience is already a bad one.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Kait and Del were the weakest part of Gears 4, now they take center stage. It's like following the adventures of two annoying millennials as they run around being "brave" and "stunning". Its all very woke 2019 social justice crap. JD has the misfortune of being male AND white and is thus disgraced by The Coalition so that the perfect, infallible Kait can take over as the generic "strong woman".

    JD just disappears at one point and we are told, not shown, that JD is now an a**hole for no real reason (completely disregarding the bond they formed in 4, but I digress...) and Kait and Del set out alone (no white males like Marcus allowed, apparently) and everyone stands around saying"good luck!" ... even though in the last game they literally dropped everything to help Kait find her mother.

    Kait and Del (sounds like a bad sitcom) venture into semi-open, very empty worlds/biomes and complete some fetch quests. There's a great callback to New Hope from Gears 2 with some truly top tier art direction. Marcus isn't there of course but he's nice enough to be on a radio at their beck and call. There's some great lore/story beats and action segments, boss fights, etc.

    They eventualy accomplish the mission and go to the next large, empty biome where Paduk, who doesn't like anyone, instantly trusts and respects Kait because 2019 wahman. He also makes a point to treat James Fenix (the son of the man he actually knows) like crap. Again, 2019 wahman. That's right, JD just shows up, is super nice, submissive and helpful as Kait and Del treat him like dog sh*t. Completely disregarding the events of 4. Again.

    They do some stuff and JD tells Kait that she's really good at everything (no joke, he really does this). Then it finally goes back to being a Gears game with tight, combat focused gameplay and great set pieces. Then Gears asks you if you want to save JD or Del. My personal opinion on this is that this was done so that Rod Fergusson could p*** in the faces of those who chose to save JD when he forces the cannon choice in Gears 6. Getting some woke points on twitter and angering fans.

    Pros:
    + Outstanding graphical fidelity, 4k/60fps on XIX with beautiful HDR
    + Lighting, textures and art direction is superb
    + Combat and weapons are fantastic, small additions/changes are well done
    + Environmental destruction/usability during combat.
    + Sound design is very good
    + Sand and snow deformation technology adds to immersion
    + Some great bosses and mini bosses
    + Sense of scale is impressive
    + Expands/explains story and lore

    CONS:
    - Weakest leads in Gears history. Del is a plank of wood and Kait is just a stand in for "strong female protaganist in 2019". Both characters are given a sense of importance to the Gears verse that is unearned.
    - 2019 progressive propaganda at its most obvious (and shameless)
    - Friendly AI is the worst in the series. Epic levels of dumb from these bots.
    - Empty open worlds/biomes
    - Elevates Kait and Del by disgracing JD
    - Disgusting storefront loaded with high priced MTX's
    - Very grindy pvp/horde/escape modes
    - Large amounts of pandering to Mexico and alphabet people for some reason. Half of the banners are "pride" banners. ????
    - Lots (and lots) of walking segments
    - Buggy at launch
    - Game is almost unplayable at higher difficulties to to incompetent AI, wildly difficult enemies, bugs etc.
    - Not a typical Gears game. Aimed for God of War, wound up with Gears of Woke
    - Gears used to be a system seller. Not anymore
    - Worst story and campaign in the series, by far

    Get on GamePass or on sale. This feels like a spinoff title or DLC. This is not proper Gears of War.

    Okay Microsoft, you win. I'll buy the PS5 next gen over the Scarlett. No reason to destroy Gears like this.

    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.
