Gears of War 5 Is Happening, Dev Says, Unless Gears 4 Goes ‘Horribly’

4.5
The Coalition’s Rod Fergusson has revealed that Gears of War 5 is pretty much a given at this point- unless Gears of War 4 does terribly. That knowledge, apparently, makes development far easier, with less pressure on the developers, than before.

“One of the things that’s nice about Microsoft’s investment is that we know, unless this does horribly, we’re probably going to do another one,” explained Ferguson to DigitalSpy.

“That’s made it easier to design moving forward. In the past, when we were doing Gears 1, Gears 2 and Gears 3, there was a lot of doubt, we didn’t know whether there would be another one, so we just had to get everything in right now.

“Here, we’re able to look at it, recognize a great idea that doesn’t quite fit right now, but it’ll fit in the next one. It’s made it a lot easier.”

I think it'll be a good game

AustinPosted:

that's kinda crazy how gears 4 isn't even out yet and they're already saying gears 5 will be happening

EHEBrandonPosted:

I'm sure it'll be good but this just shows that they're just in it for the money and not the game itself. :/ If they knew that was the case they should have left the series finished at 3 or make it finish at 4...

Nah, I can see this being a great game.

SeamPosted:

XboxPosted:

Well I've always loved the gears series and will definitely be picking up gears of war 4 so I sure hope they make a 5.

Dil The only Gears game that I expect that did poorly was Gears of War Judgment, but if they stick to the play style of Gears of War 1 or 3, I strongly believe that Gears of War 4 will be a success.


You got that right. Judging from the gameplay on Twitch it's just like UE. A mix of Gears 1 and 3.
