Believe it or not, the latest game in the Gears of War franchise, Gears 5, is being released in just a few short weeks. A bit of a shock, I know. Unless you’ve been anxiously anticipating and following the game, of course.

For Gamescom 2019, some new trailers have been released. One looks at the game’s single-player campaign story, while the other looks at the Horde Mode. You can find both of those trailers below along with more info on the game and, as an added bonus, videos explaining the various multiplayer modes as well as a promo for the Halo: Reach character pack.
