10 Anticipated Video Games You Forgot Were Coming In 2025
7. Gears Of War: E-Day

If there was a series that epitomised the Xbox 360 era, it was Gears Of War.
The Gears franchise has continued to see success into the current generation, however it's been some time since players were united with Delta squad. With the recent announcement of Gears Of War: E-Day during Microsoft's 2024 Xbox Showcase, fans of the COG have been gleefully rubbing their hands together ever since.
Putting players in the shoes of a younger Marcus Fenix, this prequel takes place 14 years before the events of the first game and follows the chaos that unfolded when the Locusts first appeared. As well as being an origin story to the series-long war, E-Day will also focus on how the brotherly bond was formed between Marcus and Dom Santiago.
Fans can also look forward to seeing E-Day return to its horror roots after years of the series leaning more heavily into its action side. Developers The Coalition aim to capture the terror of this moment in the Gears universe to tell what they promise to be an intimate story.
While there's currently no confirmed release date, insider reports claim that Microsoft are aiming to release E-Day at a later point in 2025.
