A New Era of Emergence
Gears of War: E-Day isn’t just a remaster; it’s a complete reimagining built on a new foundation, developed entirely in Unreal Engine 5. This technical overhaul delivers stunning visuals and performance, pushing the boundaries of what the series has achieved, with support for 4K resolution and up to 60FPS across both the Campaign and Multiplayer.
The game plunges players fourteen years before the original Gears of War, throwing them into the chaos of Emergence Day as the Locust Horde erupts from below. Players will engage in a gripping origin-story campaign alongside Marcus Fenix and Dominic Santiago, fighting for survival against an atmosphere that is darker, grittier, and infused with heightened dread.
The multiplayer experience has been completely refined, offering an evolution of the iconic PvE mode with Horde Siege, now bigger and more evolved for larger maps and more players. Squads can choose classes—Assault, Marksman, Medic, or Breacher—to conquer world bosses and team up against the Locust threat.
Versus PvP has also been refined and focused, introducing modernized controls and movement that make combat feel fluid while retaining Gears’ signature cover-based feel. Players can battle across all-new maps and tackle ranked modes or relaxed social playlists with enhanced movement and traversal.
The game features reimagined enemies and weapons, alongside new creatures and villains that restore a true sense of horror to the series. This is combat that feels like Gears, but plays like something entirely new.
Premium Edition owners gain exclusive perks, including up to five days of early access, access to the Bravo Squad Signature Weapon Pack, five seasonal customization packs starting with the Emergence Pack, and 1,000 Iron premium in-game currency. This edition truly offers the most immersive journey into the horror and brutality of Emergence Day.
Mark your calendars: September 29 is the start of the pre-install, and October 6 is the day the world ignites. Follow @GearsofWar on social media and visit GearsofWar.com for all the latest updates on this terrifying and thrilling new chapter.
