Customers are saying

Customers are enthusiastic about Gears 5's impressive graphics and engaging story. The campaign and horde mode also receive significant praise, with many citing them as highlights of the game. While some players found the controls needed adjustment, overwhelmingly positive feedback focuses on the action and, for some, the open-world aspects. A few players expressed some minor concerns about the ending.

    This is a really good game with amazing graphics. The whole story of gears of wars is one that any Xbox owner should own or at lest play. I got this game and I love it!

    Another good co-op game in the series. The ending was a bit shocking and out of character for a generally lighthearted series.

    Gears 5 has been out for a year now, but it’s still a perfect time to jump in. There’s a new update that adds Bautista to the campaign for new game + and plenty of multiplayer modes to fit anyone’s play style, whether it’s horde mode, co-op, or TDM. Great purchase and glad I got a fantastic deal on the price

    The game has a campaign, multiplayer, horse mode, and the new escape mode which also has a map editor. The story is exciting and visually impressive. The game also gives background to the previous game so you can get right into the story if you're new to gears.

    Great game, amazing graphics accompany it also. You get a lot of value as the game offers many single player modes and multi player modes so it’ll keep most Gears fans happy for a while. It also has downloadable content for people wanting more story based content.

    Full credit to Best Buy for selling a Microsoft X/S upscaled game that is SO good in terms of story telling, sequences, adventures for just 4.99 Best Buy has the greatest of prices. That being said if you like third view fps get this

    I got this game on sale, and for the price, it blew me away. So much content, for barely any money. I've always been a Gears fan, and this game just has more of the same goodness I've enjoyed through the years. You should totally have it in your collection, especially because the price is so good!

    This latest version of Gears is by far the hardest one. The other versions you could win most of the time but this one you have to work at. The shotgun you use doesn't go as far or do as much damage so you have to be really close to the target. It's most entertaining.

    Loved this game on Xbox one but the upgrades on series x are just absolutely mind boggling the graphics and movement all picked up a few notches if you have not played this game before you really need to now especially if you bought a series x or s ! Highly recommended for either systems!!!

    I’ve been a fan of the gears series since the beginning. And I’ve had a great time with this game as well. It’s not at the top of my list but worth the play to experience the entire gears saga. Paired with a series x, this game looks awesome. Buy it!!
