Gears of War: Reloaded coming to Steam, Xbox and PS5

It's disappointing they decided to go 40 dollars with only one entry. This should have been a bundle of entire trilogy for 60 dollars

Each one will probably drop for 40. That's 120 dollars and maybe a trilogy package for 100 once they're all out.

It was a straight port, I think you'd have a point but 4K120... I think it's fair to sell for 40 dollars.

I wonder if Halo CE will also be 40 or if they'll do a full on remake and price it at 70 (or 80...)
 
How's this different from the last remaster?

Precision Performance on Every Platform

No matter where you play, Gears of War: Reloaded has been re-engineered to look and feel incredible. Players can expect:

  • 4K resolution
  • 60 FPS in Campaign
  • 120 FPS in Multiplayer
  • High Dynamic Range (HDR)
  • Dolby Vision & 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos
  • 7.1.4 3D Spatial Audio
  • Variable Refresh Rate (VRR)
  • 4K assets and remastered textures
  • Enhanced post-processing visual effects
  • Improved shadows and reflections
  • Super resolution with improved anti-aliasing
  • Zero loading screens during Campaign
 
Literally a remaster of Gears of War Ultimate Edition (turns out, that edition wasn't very Ultimate) that includes upgraded textures and all post-launch DLC. This version also supports 120fps, where the previous versions were capped at 30fps.

I love GoW 1 and had a great time when I played Ultimate a few months back, but man... Every single release of this game strays further and further from the original's art style.

I'd kill for a re-release of the original PC version on GOG or something.
 
Major W compared to the rumoured collection with no online play.

Guessing MS were one of the publishers who didn't get a Switch 2 dev kit.
 
People REALLY struggled to understand this. It's like they need that press release that the Xbox Series is discontinued, but they'll still be waiting for the next hardware announcement. There will probably never be another Xbox exclusive title again and this is only the 2nd pillar to drop. The next will be Halo Combat Evolved.

Phil Spencer: There are no redlines.
Xbox Fanboys: It's still only 4 games.
That's what delusion looks like.

Years of denial and echo-chambers has made some people completely oblivious to reality.
 
I've never played Gears of War, it's good that it will be released on Steam. Probably if this remaster sells well, they will do the same treatment with the other games.
 
People complaining this doesn't have 2, 3, and Judgement: this was probably pretty low-hanging fruit for Microsoft. The Ultimate Edition remaster was done in the early days of the Xbox One, which means it's already on the modern architecture and can be easily upgraded / ported to other platforms. The other earlier games in the series are still stuck on the old 360 code, and would probably need to me remade from the ground up (like this one was).

True. Personally think they should just port 5 too as the MP was good on that one but they might want to carefully manage.

Hope it's not true. Imagine the PC version being limited to 4k and 60fps. -_-'

Little bit correction required there, the UE did get FPS boost on Series consoles and can be played at 1080/60.

Good that it's free for existing owners, would have liked the full trilogy.
