A sight for saw eyes
The most testosterone-fueled third-person shooter in gaming will return on October 11, it has been revealed.
In a post at gaming site Xbox Wire, Coalition's Community Director, Adam Fletcher, unveiled Gears of War 4's release date, almost a year on from its initial reveal at E3.
Taking place after the original quadrilogy, Gears of War 4 puts players in control of JD Fenix, son of the original game's Marcus, who -judging by the attached image- has inherited his pop's penchant for glowy-blue lights and gun-mounted chainsaws.
Reportedly, the fourth proper entry in the Gears saga will move away from the widescreen bombast of the last few games, opting for a more intense and atmospheric campaign, a la the original.
We'll have to wait a little longer to see how that campaign is shaping up, but, in the meantime, players can sample the game's multiplayer for themselves when the beta gets underway later this April.
If you want to get in the action early, you'll need to have played Gears of War: Ultimate Edition on either Xbox One or PC. Everyone else can take part on April 25th, provided they are an Xbox Live Gold subscriber.
