Overview

Description

Gears Tactics is the fast-paced, turn-based strategy game set 12 years before the first Gears of War. Cities on the planet Sera are beginning to fall to the monstrous threat rising from underground – the Locust Horde. With the government in disarray, a squad of survivors emerge as humanity's last hope. Play as Gabe Diaz, recruiting, equipping and commanding your squads on a desperate mission to hunt down the relentless and powerful leader of the Locust army: Ukkon, the evil mastermind who makes monsters. Against all odds and fighting for survival, outsmart your enemy in uniquely brutal, turn-based tactical combat. Experience the intensity of one of the most-acclaimed video game sagas in an exciting new way.

Fun game, a lot like XCOM but with less people to control. Would be nice to have more people and maybe a choice of different weapons for each class. Still a fun game tho... waiting to see if GT 2 will evolve towards my hopes.

A very exciting addition to the Gears of War series. Familiar gameplay, with necessary updates to the story. It is easy to get back into, and solid graphics as usual.

Great Gears of War turn based tactics/strategy game. Graphics and gameplay are great - reminds me of XCOM or fallout tactics. Very different type of Gears game but still a lot of fun if you like turn based games.

Excellent strategy game. This is what Xcom 2 should have been. This game copies alot of the gameplay from that series but improves on most of the issues and pacing from that series. The execution mechanic really turns battles around and makes each encounter exciting. Highly reccomend the game.

A good game but I expected more. Graphics are obviously good but I’m not sure I should have spent my hard earned money on this. It is what it is now, just my 2 cents.

QuestionIs this a battle game, story game, or both?
Asked 5 months ago by Bevis.
- Answer It's a battle game but not like you expect. You can't just run out shooting your opponents. You have to choose where on the map they move and who you're trying to kill. You only get a certain amount of tries before it's the other teams turn. It's really not fun if you're used to regular Gears.
