Reviews

Gears of War 4 is directed by a new generation of creators, shares a lot of similar narrative structures to the beloved first piece of the trilogy it succeeds, and is an experience you’ll walk away from with a big smile on your face – in campaign, Versus, and Horde modes alike.

Gears of War 4 is the best Gears yet. Don’t expect a revolution, but a refinement of all of the aspects that make Gears great, including an over-the-top, almost cartoonish campaign, and a kick-ass upgrade of Horde mode. It’s also a flawless representative of Microsoft’s new “Play Anywhere” and Universal Windows Platform initiatives.
