Gears 5 - Cinematic and Gameplay trailer
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
One of the stand out games for me, looks refreshing and can see the change in direction Rod spoke of after Gears 4. Superb.
And the visuals are some of the best ive seen, wow at the lighting. DF are going to buzzing i think over this.

Got any quotes or links? Not doubting you, I'm just curious what he said.
It's guaranteed. And look at those new monsters holy shit.
Absolutely amazing. The highlight of the show for me. I love everything about this reveal.
Edit: Literally cannot get over the graphical quality. The IQ is insane!

It does look like they gave JD more of a personally this time, I'm guessing you're gonna jump between playing as JD and Kait. I'm also gonna guess the dead guy was Kait's Uncle.
Lol, I was super confused. I thought the dead guy was JD and the other fenix guy (who was apparently JD) was his brother.
They all look so different now.

Wow, the change-up with Kait as the lead and JD with a shaved head was a surprisingly refreshing change that raises my excitement significantly.
Heavily looking forward to Gears 5.

Idk. It seems like JD is a bit of an antagonist and you'll just be kait

He elaborated on this a bit more in other places, which i will need to dig up.
I kind of doubt he'll be an antagonist and I'm guessing he has his reasons for being a prick.
I think it's obvious he's seen some shit at this stage and is probably just trying to do what he thinks will keep people safe, even if that means being abrasive about it.
This looks awesome. Really love the tone. I find myself way more excited for this than I've been since Gears 1. I hope we see more at e3. Microsoft is going to have a great 2019.
I didn't think I'd actually give a shit about these characters after Gears 4. Hated the saturday morning cartoon vibe with Gears 4. I guess enough time has passed where they're effectively different characters. Though Marcus is still looking good, so, I don't know.
First gears game I've been excited for in years. This looks incredible. If it's half as engaging as it looks, I'm a happy camper.
Ok I shall check em out. Is there a story I need to follow or can I jump right into 4?
:(
Well I think it's better to play the trilogy first otherwise 4 might be a litlle confusing.
That seemed more of fluff to drive some conflict between the characters, he will probably be antagonistic towards Kait throughout the game but, end up reconciling at the end. It's still a Gears their plots never really deviate from the unexpected in terms of how the characters grow and change in the games. Also I don't see Gears a dudebro shooter fully committing to an all female led game, its probably gonna jump between both being playable. I could be wrong, but we won't know fully until they reveal more.
I've never been much of a Gears guy. I've played all the games and while fun (Judgment doesn't count), I never really got a sense of investment in the world or characters. However, if the quality of the narrative remains as strong as the snippet we've seen today, then this might end up being my favorite Gears game.
I'm also glad they realized that Kait was the character who was actually somewhat interesting and had us play as her instead :P

The reveals gives me hope after the average campaign of the previous game. I like the new design of the characters, Del and Kait are way more serious than before.
!!!!
Can't wait to see where this leads.

Idk, the description we have makes it seem like the game is purely about Kait's journey:
So outside Del for co-op, I'm thinking this is gonna be all her show.
As it should be.
And not play Kratos-JD? That would be a crime. I don't know, I totally see the separate ways from Gears of War 3 making its return.
Agreed. I also think that way too much has happened in the time between Gears 4 and Gears 5 to just explain it away as a little synopsis. I kind of feel like we need to see things from JD's point of view as well.
Maybe a prologue chapter going into previous events like Gears 4 did at the beginning, but based on that trailer id say that we are going to be following Kait for at least 90% of the story.
Huh the story already showed it at the end.
If you have no intention of ever building one then get the 1X
Hmmm, this raises a good point, however I just don't see this game without a playable Fenix, and JD in particular as he is a crucial character in the same right. I'm gonna have to fully see it to believe it.
My friends gave up after having that Gears Funko collaboration as well as that Gears XCOM game. I knew I was right having a hunch of Gears 5 being the secret game this year (not thanks to Walmart of course).
He is.
He is.
Its only him though.
Del, Kait and Marcus (who looks younger) are recognizable
Yeah, everyone seemed pretty recognizable to me. Even with JD I could tell it was him almost immediately.
Love the redesign, honestly. Everyone in Gears 5 looks great, although I'll miss bearded Marcus.
Seems like they heard how bland and uninspired the original gears 4 cast was. Playing through co-op with a friend now and jokes go over like lead balloons plus Del is annoying. JD was the most bland whitebread gears character ever. Kait really was the best character.
