    Continues the story of the previous games. Theres a new free roam type of environment to find lots of collectibles and progress the story.

    If you are a Gears of War fan, by this game! I love how they turned to Kat for her story. Made the Gears universe truly fascinating, in my opinion.

    The game is a great muti-player and co-op platform. Also, the storyline is pretty amazing to the predecessor to the Gear of war 4
