A story to remember

Gears of War is known for its epic battles where bullets fly across the area, hitting almost everyone. Gears 5 is the latest in the series and offers the same, well-loved shooting once more.

Multiplayer campaign

In this title you dive back into the intense and thrilling narrative of the series. You can try to conquer the campaign on your own, or join friends to lighten the load.

The Gears of War franchise is quite popular, in part due to its artistic theme. The game has a heavy mechanical feel that is reminiscent of the steampunk style. Combine this with the action-packed adventures you go on and you see why Gears 5 delivers such an amazing experience. When you start playing you can jump into the game’s main campaign. This is filled with a delectable story for you to digest between the long and exciting exchange of bullets that you run into on a regular basis.

The controls are smooth and easy to learn. Also, the combat is impactful and has a realistic feel to it. You‘ll probably freak out the first few times an enemy catches you by surprise. With or without friends, you can switch between different game modes such as Escape or Versus. There’s also a Horde mode where you and friends face off against waves of enemies.

Once you’re tired of the available selection of maps, you can create your own. Gears 5 has a fully functional map creation tool to keep your gameplay fresh. If you still need more content, you can purchase a few in-game items and other extras. The idea of micro-transactions is, however, appealing to very few gamers.

Where can you run this program?

Gears 5 is available for 64-bit Windows 7-10 systems. It also runs on Xbox One.

Is there a better alternative?

No. While there are many games in the Shooter genre, such as Halo 5 and Counter-Strike, Gears 5 offers a great storyline and co-operative gameplay all in one place.

Our take

This is an easy game to pick up and play, both by yourself or with a small group of friends. It has a great narrative and engaging multiplayer to boot.

Should you download it?

Yes. If you’re looking for some intense third-person shooter action, this is a great choice.
