Gears Tactics, a turn-based strategy game, was announced as a new addition to the Gears of War franchise at the E3 2018 Microsoft press conference.
The new title will be released on PC, the Coalition studio head Rod Ferguson revealed. In it, “you create a whole new squad in a completely different genre 12 years before the events of Gears of War 1 as they hunt the locust monster maker responsible for destroying whole cities.
“It’s our take on the classic turn-based strategy genre with a character-driven story, faster, more aggressive gameplay and a customizable squad and equipment,” he added, confirming Gears Tactics will also have “massive boss battles.”
Gears Tactics is just one of three Gears of War games announced during the Microsoft conference. Additionally, Gears of War Pop was revealed, as well as the hotly anticipated Gears of War 5.
