After many rumors and speculations from fans, Xbox finally revealed the next game from one of its most well-known series. Gears of War: E-Day surprised fans by announcing that it would be a complete prequel to the entire franchise’s story.
Some players received this very positively, but others delved deeper into the prequel concept and suggested a different kind of game. A Reddit user made an entire post describing what they would like to see in a prequel, proposing an angle different from that of the famous COGs.
After its first appearance on the popular Xbox 360, this franchise established itself as one of Microsoft’s most popular and successful. Now, The Coalition has officially presented Gears of War: E-Day, a prequel to everything we know so far. You will learn about Marcus Fenix’s origins as a soldier, as well as how his friendship with Dominic Santiago began. The community is very excited to try this game.
On the other hand, some players appreciate this prequel but would have liked a completely different concept. A Reddit user recommended another type of prequel in which the popular COGs, the giant soldiers we control in all titles, were not involved.
He even named several characters that could be part of a completely different prequel that could be a possibility, and certain parts of the community are saying that would be great.
This user outlined his desires for a prequel, including the possibility for players to control the Locust for the first time, as part of an original narrative about their battle against the well-known Lambent.
The user also suggested that the UIR could emerge as the protagonist, following or amidst the renowned Pendulum Wars, a recurring theme in the title’s lore. It has a lot more to offer than the Locust.
Some users agreed with what the author of this post submitted, even saying that the game could add this in a future DLC. Many users concurred that any content featuring the UIR, one of the factions that divided humans, would be quite intriguing.
Fortunately, over the years, the lore of this franchise has become increasingly detailed and solidified. This makes the potential for various narratives incredibly tangible.
For now, Xbox has not confirmed a release date for Gears of War: E-Day, but it all points to sometime in 2025. It’s been a while since fans were this excited to try a game from this franchise.
The studio made the right decision by launching a prequel instead of the sixth installment, which will probably come later. This saga will once again reveal two of its most valuable characters, like never before.
