Re: GEARS OF WAR: E-Day
Interesting bit of info from one of the Gears devs.
Blur developed the trailer hand-in-hand with our team @CoalitionGears using @UnrealEngine 5. The trailer is developed with in-game models, textures, environments and props that players will see in the final game.
This follows the same method that we used for the Gears of War trailers for the first three games, which were made in Unreal Engine with in-game assets, showcasing the engine’s technical capabilities and we’re pushing that even further with Unreal Engine 5.

Re: GEARS OF WAR: E-Day
I think bringing in people Can Fly Studio is a plus since they did work and do Gears of War: Judgement....which me personally didn't have any issue with but know it received a mixed bag of feedback. The only issue I had was the visuals; I felt it wasn't, "rough enough" looking, a bit of pastel, not the same pop as the originals. The Four Classes to play was fun and basically what you see in a lot of games today. Sounds like The Coalition has a lot on its plate to begin with anyways...a good write up on why it's a good fit...... Gears of War: E-Day Should Take Full Advantage of People Can Fly
