The big Xbox One console exclusive of fall 2019 is finally here and is continues the story from the end of Gears of War 4. However, while the Kait centric campaign might be the draw for some, there’s loads of content in Gears 5 beyond that one mode.
With the traditional multiplayer, Horde mode that sees you test your skills against 50 waves of enemies, and the new co-op focused mode called Escape, there’s plenty to jump into once the main credits roll.
With so much to see and do in Gears 5, there’s a lot of mechanics to get to grips with. Our guide wiki here will have everything you need to know about each of the game’s modes.
