Gears of War -sarjasta muistettavan The Coalitionin pomo Rod Ferguson lähtee Blizzardille Diablon pariin, mutta sarja itse jää tietenkin edelleen Microsoftin haltuun. Xbox Game Studiosin pomo Matt Booty on kertonut Games Industrylle, että Gearsin fanijoukko jatkaa edelleen kasvuaan.
"I feel great about Gears 5. I will start with what's most important, in that the quality and the craft of the game is world class. I say that definitively without having to put any exceptions or caveats around that. We are particularly happy with the progress that they've made in terms of accessibility, diversity representation in the game, and some of the awards it got for things like audio. We are still seeing a tremendous amount of energy around the passionate and global fanbase. That group continues to grow.
We have continued growth in merchandise, linear media... Universal still has the option for the movie out there. So we feel great about it. And in terms of the game's performance, it has done very well within Game Pass."
Gears 6 on tietenkin tulossa, ja Matt Booty koettaa saada Universalin kanssa puuhattavaa elokuvaprojektia etenemään.
