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.”

As long as this gears is fast-paced and not stupid things to ruin it then it should be fine.

I'm excited for Gears 4 and I don't think it will go horribly it will be a sick game and go brilliantly just like the others except from Judgement as Dil said.

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.
