Every September 2019 Video Game Ranked By Anticipation

2. Gears 5

Release Date: September 10

Platforms: PC, Xbox One

The Gears of War franchise reigned supreme across the Xbox 360 gen, but on our current consoles, it has struggled. Especially with the lukewarm, 'done this' reception to Gears of War 4.

Now studio The Coalition has aimed to shake things up. They've changed the main protagonist and have put a dark and interesting story front and centre. Plus, we might finally be getting drastically new enemy types (gasp!).

The marketing for the game has certainly been a mess, but there's no doubt many gamers want this title to succeed. It won't hurt that it's a day one release on Xbox Game Pass either (across Xbox One and PC).

Time to rev up that sawblade with your mates then...
