From The Coalition: “We wanted to start this Whats Up with a thank you to those of you who played last weekend.
The launch of Gears 5 has been overwhelmingly successful, with huge volumes of players jumping into the game in a short space of time.
The flipside to that success is that our launch far exceeded even our Tech Test numbers, and exposed some service issues that only emerge at the massive scale of players we had in our game encountered.”
