Xbox might be planning a Gears of War remastered collection

Last generation, there was a rumour that The Coalition was working on a remaster for the full Gears of War trilogy, similar to Halo's Master Chief Collection. Ultimately, we only ended up getting a remaster of the first game on Xbox One and not a full ‘Marcus Fenix Collection'. However, we may see Gears of War finally get the Master Chief Collection treatment soon. 

According to Nick Baker of Xbox Era, Gears of War is getting a ‘Master Chief Collection-style' remaster, collecting together the games in the franchise so far. Whether this will include Gears 1, 2, 3, Judgement, 4 and Gears 5 was not confirmed, so it may end up being just the older titles from the Xbox 360 era.

VGC has also heard through its own sources that The Coalition is in the early stages of development on Gears 6, which was also listed in the infamous GeForce Now database leak, a source that has been confirmed by a huge number of more recent game announcements.

Aside from working on Gears, The Coalition is also experimenting with a new IP and is currently working on mastering Unreal Engine 5 for future projects.

KitGuru Says: I'm not convinced that we'll see a Gears remaster collection like the MCC, but given the long gap we're going to have between Gears 5 and Gears 6, it could make sense for Microsoft just to keep the IP relevant.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
