Between Gamescom’s announcements and all the new releases coming next week, The Coalition’s Gears of War: Reloaded is now available for Xbox Series X/S, PC, and – in a series’ first – PS5. It’s a significant milestone for the series, arriving almost 20 years after the original game was first released.
As an upgrade/remaster, Reloaded included everything from Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, from multiplayer maps and various characters to the DLC. The biggest enhancements include support for 4K resolution with updated textures, 60 FPS in the campaign (with no loading screens), 120 FPS in multiplayer, and cross-platform play.
Cross-progression is also enabled for those who log in with their Microsoft account. Check out our review of the title and whether it’s worth it.
The next game in the series, Gears of War: E-Day, will launch next year for PC and Xbox Series X/S. It’s a prequel focusing on Marcus Fenix and Dom after the Pendulum Wars, when the Locust first emerge and wreak havoc on humanity.
