The Coalition, the studio behind the upcoming Gears 5, released the full list of achievements for the game alongside news that it has gone gold. The game comes to PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Game Pass next month.
Gears 5 will release on September 6th and features gameplay over five different modes. The modes cover single player, multiplayer, and co-op; and the list of achievements applies to all of them. The team has labeled them so fans can see which modes they will need to play in order to unlock each one.
The announcement, which Xbox posted on their official news site, came with a heartfelt message from the Gears team. Rod Fergusson, the Studio Head at The Coalition, thanked the team for what he calls the “furthest we have ever taken the franchise.”
The studio recently announced that for the first time, three players can team up to tackle the Gears 5 campaign. In the same post where the team revealed the achievements for the game, it announced that players can expect more information about the new campaign via a story trailer at Gamescom in Germany later this month.
But that’s not all of the news players can expect at Gamescom. Eager Gears fans should tune into Inside Xbox on Monday, August 19 at 8:00am PDT for the reveal of the all-new Horde mode. This popular mode puts players up against a gauntlet of enemies and asks them to survive. The team showed off Gears 5’s deathmatch mode last month with a new trailer.
Microsoft has hit the promotion hard for Gears 5, the latest entry one of their exclusive franchises. Super-fans waiting on the release of the game to upgrade their console have had their patience rewarded. The company recently announced a limited edition Gears themed Xbox One X that will drop in conjunction with the release.
In the post, Microsoft Games Studios Head Matt Booty talks about some of the technical specifications of the upcoming game, which according to him will run in 4K and at 60 frames per second on Xbox One X. The game also supports HDR. The team has talked about the 60fps point before, claiming they hope to keep that number consistent in multiplayer as well. Gears 5 will rely on new 60HRZ servers to make sure it can manage the challenge of giving players multiplayer at 60fps.
In the mean time, achievement fans can scour the list below to see if they can glean any new information about the upcoming title. Or at the very least, plan their strategy for adding 1,000 points to their Gamerscore.
