7. Gears of War 5
Recommended Videos
Microsoft was wise to lean on its more famous IPs at E3 after being bopped over the head by the likes of Mario and Kratos over the past few months, giving us glimpses at new entries for Halo, Forza Horizon and Gears of War. The latter of the three was the most fascinating, making a clear effort to shift gears (zing!) from the macho tone that the franchise has been known for.
Focusing on Kait Diaz, the trailer showed a more emotional journey, treating death as a loss rather than a statistic. There also seems to be a shift away from the drab and dreary color palette of the series thus far, with the squad venturing through lush jungles and across frozen tundras. We’ll have to wait a little longer for more details, though.
