Gears 5: 10 Characters We NEED In Multiplayer

11. Honourable Mention: Lambent Skins

With so much love being shown to older and classic skins within the game it would be fun to see the Lambent again.

The Lambent had always received mixed views from fans and can best be compared to the Batmobile in Arkham Knight. Gears of War 3 just seemed to go a bit overkill with how many Lambent they seemed to throw at the player.

The natural progression then saw the rise of the Swarm as a successor to the Locust rather than the Lambent with the latter being forgotten to the ages. The main problem wasn't with the Lambent but with just how iconic the Locust Horde had become. It was no surprise that the new series of games would lean more towards the franchise roots but that doesn't mean to say the Lambent should not return in some capacity.

The terrifying glowing ghouls would make excellent skins for the existing Swarm characters and allow for some cool lighting effects and animations when they are killed. For the sake of gameplay, these skins still should not create an explosion as that would make them insanely overpowered.

Still, a brief flash of glowing goo would make the kills look pretty impressive.
