Will Gears 6 really be released in 2024? This is hinted at in a post published by The Coalition level designer Benjamin Huyghe in response to the development team’s congratulations on the holidays.
“See you in 2024,” Huyge wrote, adding the hashtag #gearsfam and thus addressing either the studio where he works, which is responsible for the Gears of War franchise, or fans of the series: the meaning of his words can be twofold .
Considering that more than four years have passed since the release of Gears 5, it is obvious that The Coalition has been working on the next chapter for a long time, which means they are ready, if not to release the game, then at least to show it to the public.
Gears 6 could be the conclusion of a trilogy dedicated to the new generation of Gears, which in the fifth episode showed how the group consisting of Kate, J.D. and Del faced an extremely traumatic event, the consequences of which we still do not know, either narratively or at the canonical level.
Therefore, it will be very interesting to know how the plot will develop, but above all, what evolution will undergo the traditional third-person shooter mechanics of the saga.
