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.

    I have played all the gears games and continue to love their storyline and online play. I really like that I can play in 4K too really adds to the experience!

    This game is a must have on the Xbox series x. It's a complete game changer in the 120fps mode. Playing on an oled makes it even better

    It’s lots of fun and all, but it’s way harder than MarioCart is on my phone. Only but if your can handle stuff harder than an iOS port of a Nintendo game.

    The Gears before this was horrible. This one got me playing again. Great multiplayer and the horde mode is awesome. Got it really cheap on black Friday.

    I have played all of the Gears of Wars games to date, and they continue to be enjoyable. As far as co-op FPS games go, this is the best there is.

    So much better than gears 4 and I really liked gears 4 to begin with! For $20 I’d rather have the physical than just the digital on game pass.
