Customer Ratings & Reviews

One of the best games on Xbox 1. The graphics are amazing and the gameplay is epic. I was skeptical about the story when it was announced but Kait’s story was excellent. Multiplayer is a blast but can be frustrating at times especially against good players.

Another hit in the gears of war series. Great multiplayer, campaign, horde, and the new escape mode! The only downfall is somebody has to be the robot instead of a cog if playing co-op campaign which can get kind of boring for the person having to play as Jack the entire time.

If you're into Gears of War, this is really more of the same, but with fantastic graphics. I've always found the gears games satisfying if not a little too repetitive for my liking. Keep in mind that I only play single-player, so if multiplayer is your thing, you might have a different experience. The graphics and cover/shoot game-play is as tight and fun as ever.

Great single player campaign and multiplayer modes - you don’t see that in a lot of shooter games anymore! Series still innovates so that people like me who have played every game since the original Gears of War can still find it new and exciting.

Its an amazing game but also on gamepass if you wanna try it out. Its more open world than previous entries and in my opinion the characters aren't as interesting as the originals in 1 through 3 but it still plays great and the visuals are the best.

Another great game from this series. Game arrived on time. Does require a lot of hard drive space so keep that in mind (114GB). But when you see how it plays and the graphics are displayed, you will understand why. Definitely a good purchase.

Hands down best graphics and gameplay is awesome as always. This is what quality gaming is about. My collection is complete now.

Better Graphics, improved storyline, new weapons and don’t forget the terminators, this should be the game of the year! Improved training level and improved weapon selection. More action than before and better in game player options. Overall I give an 10 out of 10 score.

Great game! I’ve been playing gears since day one, I played every one leading up until gears 5! Storyline picks up right from gears 4! Awesome storyline! awesome game!

Superb come back. This is a must if you really enjoy this series. It definitely does not keep you on hold or waiting for the excitement. Get ready for some serious fun on the Xbox one.

Campaign and horde mode are on point. Some of the other extra modes are really good as well, but multiplayer in general is a bit lacking in my opinion as shotguns dominate the game play without much variability amongst other weapons. Still, the price makes it almost a must buy.

The newest installment of the Gears of War series does not disappoint. The graphics are amazing. The online mode is alot of fun. The campaign is detailed and gory as expected. Have not played it on the Series X yet but will soon.

Quality title for Xbox. A lot of content has dropped for this game since release which only adds to the value here. Great graphics and story and the action can't be beat. One of the best franchises Microsoft currently has

One of the best games in the series! If you are a fan of the series you will definitely love this one! The gameplay and graphics are good overall a good buy especially for the price!

Spending Pandemic2020 playing Gears has been a highlight. I can't understand why the reviews were so negative when the graphics are good, gameplay is fun, and it's a good story line.

It's Gears so if course it's good. Payed an insanely low price while on sale. Adds some open world elements to the classic gears gameplay. Oh and the graphics are insane on the series x.

Campaign was better than Gears of War 4, microtransaction purchases for skins seems quite pricey, Escape mode keeps you interested for a few rounds, but loses luster after several games, Tour of Duty requires too much time to complete, Gameplay is very similar to previous versions, with the execption of the more open sections. Would recommend to others if discounted.

This is such a great game! I love gears and I’ve played and beat every last one of them. If you love the gears series then you’ll love this. It’s got a good story with plenty of action. Co-op on this with a friend or friends is very fun.

I would. Game play is entertaining, graphics and effects are great, and cross platform saves are awesome.

I played Gears 5 back to back with Gears 4 and while 4 was solid, it was pretty same-y from the original trilogy. Gears 5 on the other hand, kept the great gunplay, but opened up the world with big areas with different encounters and secrets to explore. Once you get to specific areas attached to the open world, it's more similar to older Gears, with tight quarters and level designs that are conducive to some good firefights. The mix of environments and pacing they achieved between the two is really the shot in the arm the series needed and helps it to feel fresh. I had a great time with this game.
