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.

    Got for $5. Anytime I can get a game for that price it is good, even if it is bad.

    Even though this game is on Gamepass, I decided at this price I could not pass up owning it. Great Game!

    This is the best installment of the GOW series, hands down. It’s longer and takes some time to figure things out. Lots of side missions and the online game play is phenomenal.

    I have been a Gears fan since the beginning. I am more into the story than playing online. Enjoyed the story mode as the new improvements help make the game fun and fresh.

    My oldest son asked for GOW5 for Christmas, which was surprising because he doesn't usually play these games. But Gears of War was the exception. He loves that series.

    This game plays nearly identical to previous games in the series, just with more polish. The guns, animations, etc are all very similar to what you'd expect. It's a very solid game overall, but nothing completely different from what you'd expect from other iterations.
