Gears of War was about to debut without multiplayer

One of the games that most changed the history of Xbox and Epic Games is definitely Gears of War. The title, an Xbox 360 exclusive, gave birth to a franchise that still today is able to count on many fans and enthusiasts. In the history of development, however, there is a turning point, which could radically change the cards on the table.



As reported by former Lead Level Designer Lee Perry, at the time Epic Games it was a much smaller studio than it is today. In 2006, while they were working on Gears of War, the idea was born to include multiplayer, but in the months closest to launch the intention was to eliminate it. "There were not enough people to be able to work properly". The multiplayer of Gears of War, before launch, was simply a disaster, which did not amuse anyone. To fix it better, then, there was also a need for crunches in the height of summer. “I thought we just had to cut it,” Perry's words.| ); }
Gears of War is one of the most loved franchises by Xbox fans. The last chapter of the series debuted in 2019 and at the moment there is no news on a sixth chapter. The Coalition, the development team that took over the series after Epic Games, is certainly working on something and it is not excluded that it will not be possible to see on June 12, 2022, when Xbox and Bethesda will hold their showcase.
