According to the latest rumors, Gears of War 6 could potentially be «the moment» for Xbox Series X in the same way that the original Gears of War was «the moment» on Xbox 360. With Gears 5 ending on a cliffhanger and the franchise remaining one of the biggest Xbox console exclusive franchises in existence, the announcement of Gears of War 6 is a matter of when, not if. While it remains to be seen exactly when Microsoft will pull the curtain back on Gears of War 6, anticipation has been ramping up for a potential reveal this summer.
Multiple insiders have indicated that a Gears of War 6 reveal could be in the works for the Xbox showcase in June. Xbox has confirmed that it will be hosting a special event this June, as it does basically every year, though it has not revealed any of the games that it will be showing off. Gears of War 6 would make a lot of sense, as it's been a whopping five years since Gears 5 launched and fans of the franchise are no doubt anxious to see where the story will go from here.
If the rumors are true, the Gears of War 6 reveal will be happening in a matter of months, and when the game is finally shown off to the masses, it has the potential to be groundbreaking. Reputable leaker Nate The Hate took to Resetera to touch on the Gears 6 rumors, saying, «Much like Gears 1 was the moment on Xbox 360, so should Gears 6 be for Xbox Series X.» Nate the Hate said the game «will be that 'this is what next-gen is about' moment,» drumming up significant hype for The Coalition's new project.
Gears of War series developer The Coalition has reportedly canceled multiple projects to focus its attention on Gears of War 6, and so it's clear that a lot of resources are being invested in making the game as big as possible. Hopefully, the rumors of Gears 6 being formally announced this year are true, so fans of the franchise can see if these insiders are hyping the game up appropriately.
It's possible that there may be even more Gears of War series announcements
