It’s Set Right After E-Day
Gears Tactics fits rather snugly into the overarching narrative in the series. Taking place just after Emergence Day (E-Day) when the Locusts burst out of the ground and mounted their attack on mankind, players follow the story of Gabe Diaz. Yes, that’s the same ‘Diaz’ family as Kait. Gabe is her father and a Gear, and he’s tasked with taking down the Locust Ukkon.
He’s the big, bad creator of creatures like the Corpser, Brumak, and all the other terrifyingly enormous and deadly assets in the Locust ranks. Having the action take place prior to the original game makes it all the more appealing for fans of the series to check out, as these events have seldom been explored in the video game series before.
Not to mention, Gears Tactics does have a few rather big revelatory moments that fans are sure to lap up with vigor. We can’t say much more, but we wouldn’t want to spoil these moments for you anyway.
