Gears of War Reloaded Revives the Brutal Classic

If you’re ready to re-experience the origins of one of the most acclaimed franchises ever, then be sure to pre-order Gears of War Reloaded. The original Gears of War has been fully remastered in Unreal Engine and optimized for current-gen platforms—so now we get to see Marcus Fenix looking confused 90% of the time in high definition!

No, but seriously—Gears of War Reloaded is a definitive edition, meaning all post-launch content from the original game is included at no extra cost. That means the bonus campaign, act, multiplayer maps, characters, and cosmetics are all unlocked from day one. Yay for your wallet!

Classic Gameplay With Modern Enhancements

Even better, the remaster includes refined control options. Newcomers can use a modern streamlined control layout, while veterans can stick with the classic feel we all know and love. You’ll also have access to:

• Campaign co-op, available in both split-screen and online multiplayer
• Versus multiplayer running at a staggering 120 FPS (if your system can handle it)
• Cross-play with friends across all platforms
• Cross-progression that lets you take your save and multiplayer progress with you

(Note: A Microsoft account sign-in is required to enable cross-progression.)

Fully Optimized for Next-Gen Systems

Gears of War Reloaded is fully optimized for Xbox and PC with the following enhancements:

• Remastered textures, lighting, shadows, and reflections
• 4K assets, HDR, Dolby Vision, and ultrawide support
• Variable refresh rate and 7.1 surround sound
• Up to 144 FPS in multiplayer
• Compatible with handheld PCs, perfect for holiday gifts

There’s a catch, though—some of these features require a capable display setup.

Don’t Miss the Pre-Order Bonuses

To get in on all the extras, be sure to pre-order before August 26th, 2025. The exclusive multiplayer beta is only available with the digital edition pre-order. If you’ve got the setup to take advantage of the 4K, HDR, and 144 FPS features, this remaster is well worth it.
