Microsoft finally gives us another look at the campaign for Gears 5

With Gears 5 coming out this year, many of us expected a big preview of what’s to come during Microsoft’s E3 conference this year. Unfortunately, the presentation was kept low-key, with just one new multiplayer mode being shown on stage. Now, at Gamescom this week, we’ve finally had our next look at the Gears 5 campaign.

During the Opening Night Live presentation this week, The Coalition’s Rod Fergusson took to the stage to talk up the Gears 5 campaign and show a brand-new trailer, which you can see below:

The campaign is described as a two-sided story. The first major component is the Locust Horde returning to Sera and re-starting the war, while the second major point is a deeper exploration of Kait as a character, which makes sense given the events of Gears 4.

We don’t know how long the Gears 5 campaign will end up being but we don’t have long left to find out, as the game is launching on Xbox One, PC and Game Pass on the 6^th of September.

KitGuru Says: Gears 5 is one of my most anticipated games of this year, so I’m quite excited. The trailer shows a lot of new environments that we’ve not really seen in a Gears game before, so it looks like plenty of new ideas are being explored for the series this time around. Are many of you planning on picking up Gears 5 next month?
