Gears Of War: E-Day Preview - Sandbox Spectacle Meets Linear Action
- On October 6, 2026, The Coalition will release Gears of War: E-Day for Windows PC and Xbox Series X, marking the franchise's first new entry in seven years.
- Gears of War: E-Day serves as a prequel detailing 'Emergence Day,' when the Locust Horde emerged from the planet's core, killing 25% of the human population overnight.
- Players explore 'open district' missions in Kalona and complete side objectives while customizing weapons through a new modding feature that improves fire rate and magazine size.
- The title blends 1980s retro charm with Gothic architecture and ray-traced lighting, positioning Gears of War: E-Day as potentially the best-looking game in the franchise.
- If The Coalition executes a strong narrative worthy of beloved characters Marcus Fenix and Dominic Santiago, the game could become one of the best Gears of War titles ever released.

After 2 Hours, Gears of War: E-Day's Campaign Goes BRRRR In All the Right Ways
This is not meant as an admonishment. If anything, it’s praise: Gears of War: E-Day, at least based on a two-hour Xbox Series X build of its campaign I recently played, seems to have fully understood the Gears of War assignment. After all, this series — myopically, where each game is about a group of soldiers engaged in a testosterone contest to see whose mountainous biceps can save humanity the most — is heralded as the progenitor meathead shoo…
Even just an hour with Gears of War: E-Day's explosive campaign left me hungry to fill more E-holes across its semi
I’ve played about an hour of the Gears of War: E-Day campaign, which is shaping up to be a brilliant Xbox 360 throwback. Does E-Day reinvent the wheel? No, at least if the two missions that I’ve played are anything to go by, but everything that makes Gears of War good is present and accounted for.My hands-on kicked off at the start of Act 2 of the campaign, with the fictional city of Kalona still grappling with the early stages of the mutant Loc…

We are talking about one of the flagships of the company and also a whole revolution in the genre shooter. This happened thanks to its gameplay, which managed to captivate millions of people and ended up becoming a unique identity stamp. Its coverage system, the agility of the movements of the characters and the viscera that tarnished your scree…
I played two missions of Gears of War: E-Day's campaign: One rocked, but the other did not
"Oh yea, that's the good stuff," I said as a hipfired a gnasher and atomized a locust drone, raining monster bits all over Marcus Fenix's stoic mug. We're in the midst of a singleplayer shooter drought and I'm happy that Gears of War: E-Day is here to replenish the well.I recently got access to a two-mission Campaign demo set near the beginning of the game. The vertical slice seemed tactically considered: the first chunk showed off the linear sp…
MyMMO editor Dariusz played 2 chapters from the new Gears of War: E-Day campaign and got a good impression of what the shooter will offer. In Gears of War: E-Day, it's all about shooting the ugly Locust-Horde away with fat hums as gently as possible. We experience the beginnings of the fight between the humans and reptiloid-like attackers. The shooter plays 14 years before the first Gears of War and tells of the day when the Locust-Horde crawled…
