Gears of War E-Day tipped for September launch

We already know that Gears of War E-Day is set to be a big part of Xbox's summer showcase plans. Now, a different marketing deal between Xbox and the WWE may have revealed the game's planned release date ahead of the announcement in June. 

As spotted by GamesRadar, WWE subsidiary, Lucha Libre, recently began advertising its WWE Triplemania 34 event, due to take place in September. The announcement revealed that Gears of War E-Day will be one of the main sponsors for the event.

With the event taking place between the 11th and 13th of September, it is now expected that the new Gears game will become available around the same time, well ahead of the launch of GTA 6, which is expected to eat up the majority of games sales in November.

If all goes to plan this year, Xbox will have a hugely busy Summer and Q3 period, with Halo: Campaign Evolved, Gears E-Day and Fable all expected to release within a short timespan.

KitGuru Says: As much as I've enjoyed the newer Gears of War games, a return to the Marcus Fenix era in Gears E-Day is far more exciting to me than a Gears 6 at this point.
