According to Polygon, Microsoft and The Coalition are about to introduce three different Gears of War video games at E3 2018 next week. Not just one, so: three, from three different genres.
Based on the information gathered from the website, these games are Gears of War 5 – the second chapter in the JD Fenix saga -, a battle royale title set in the same universe, and a real time strategy game in the likes of Halo Wars.
“But what about the games? Microsoft’s big original properties haven’t found huge success this generation. Nonetheless, we expect the company will commit to its established brands, announcing Halo 6, Forza Horizon 4 and another Gears of War,” Polygon claims.
“In fact, we’ve heard rumors that Microsoft could announce up to three Gears games, including a traditional sequel, a real-time strategy title in the style of Halo Wars and a battle royale game. Perhaps the franchise will get traction with the larger user base on Windows 10.”
That would be a great news for Xbox and Gears of War fans, although we’re not that sure that this could be the best thing to happen to the franchise and to the first party lineup of Microsoft. What do you say?
