Apr 28, 2020Thank you for very Much, Microsoft, The Coalition, Splash Damage, Rod Fergusson, and Phil Spencer.!
Gears Tactics, is very Cool tactical Game!
I love Halo, Gears, Forza, Ori, Fable, I love XBOX!!! -
Apr 28, 2020Best game in its genre, perfect to play with game pass. The gears universe is perfect with this kind of game.
-
Apr 28, 2020Gears Tactics - an exciting tactic with incredibly beautiful graphics, interesting missions and well-developed mechanics, which could have been better if the authors of the game paid more attention to the story. Otherwise, we have a great project for fans of the genre, regardless of their loyalty to the Gears of War franchise.

Apr 28, 2020Gráficos muito bons! Mesmo sendo um jogo por turnos (que eu sou viciado) tem uma cadência de gameplay muito boa, não perde aquela emoção e correria de GEARS!! Muitas opções de personalização dos chars! Um RPG tático de verdade mas sempre sendo GEARS! Violento e frenético, tomara que a Microsoft faça mais jogos assim por turnos!!!

Apr 28, 2020Great gameplay and unexpectedly fast pace makes for an exciting experience... Must play for lovers of the gender and for new comers
-
Apr 28, 2020Maravilloso juego, excelente jugabilidad, este tipo de juegos de estrategia valen demasiado la pena, que gozada de juego.
-
Apr 28, 2020Great game and it`s good that the franchise is developing in different directions!
-
Apr 28, 2020Was not expecting such a fun game finally Microsoft is coming with the bangers.. we have had such a bad gen this is really looking good for series x
-
Jul 28, 2020I'm a fan of tactics games and I love almost everything but not this time - it's not a tactics game it doesn't have anything from tactics instead of a camera angle. I drop this game, so sad that I paid for this my time and money.

May 19, 2020Absolutely loved this game - so much so that I didn’t want it to end.
I pretty much loved everything about it, the graphics are crisp and beautiful, the story is great, the customisation is plentiful and it has more to offer. I really hope they bring out some story based DLC as this deserves a lot of attention for quite some time.
Game of the year contender -
May 20, 2020Worth a try if you like XCOM or Phantom Doctrine. Well made UI except for some minor bugs.
Pros:
- Graphics
- Animations
- Controls/UI
- Story
- Included in the Microsoft game pass for 4€ a month
Con:
- No base building -

Apr 28, 2020After the recent XCOM, it's just amazing. I hope that the 2nd part of Tactics will be released and will be even better.

Apr 28, 2020Большое спасибо Microsoft за отличную тактику. Прохожу на Xbox One X в издании Youtube Edition. Игра классная, интересная, графонистая!

Apr 28, 2020O jogo possui uma mecânica mto boa, além de uma história bem desenvolvida e gráficos Excelentes. Gears Tatics é um exemplo a ser seguido no gênero de RPG tático

Apr 29, 2020Top quality tactical turn-based RPG. Best XCOM follower since 2010. Please, more of the same!
-
Apr 28, 2020Excelente jogo, com uma gameplay diferente dos outros Gears, mas mantendo o padrão de qualidade, gameplay frenética, gráficos bonitos.
-
Apr 28, 2020Jogão, um dos melhores jogos por turno de todos. A ambientação é um show a parte

Apr 28, 2020I was honestly afraid this couldn't possible live up to XCOM 2. And i was delightfully mistaken, combat wise this is my new favorite Turn Based Strategy game. I hope this comes out with a sequel and it expands on the world and mechanics.
-
Apr 29, 2020Super duper mega klasse! Must have! Habe den ersten akt durch gespielt und bin echt begeistert, das ist so ziemlich das erste taktik shooter game das ich spiele und ich bin jetzt schon echt geflasht
-
Apr 29, 2020

Apr 28, 2020Juegazo!! Desde el tutorial hasta las misiones principales. Corre muy fluido y la traducción como el audio es digno de un juego de la saga principal.
-

-
Apr 29, 2020Flips the xcom formula enough that it feels unique and its great. I honestly didn't know what to expect with this title, but four hours flew by today and I have been chuckling my way through this game!!! Highly recommended!!
-
Apr 28, 2020Genial juego de estrategia, no es malo experimentar así con las franquicias! Deleite total, Pero cuidado ! Si no te gustan los juegos de estrategia mejor ni lo toques
-
Apr 29, 2020This game is a blast to play. I was able to create my own cog solider and take him into Battle. There are so many ways to make each character unique. Can't wait for Xbox release. Hopefully along side a multiplayer option
-

Apr 29, 2020El juego está bastante bien hecho, muy robusto, la jugabilidad correcta, derrocha calidad por todos lados, para ser un juego fuera de su zona de confort esta muy bien logrado, recomiendo su compra aún así no hayas jugado ningún juego de la saga.
-
Apr 28, 2020Refreshing entry that is addictive and fun! Here’s hoping Tactics becomes its own spin off franchise. Well done Splash Damage and TC.
-

Apr 29, 2020Grandioso juego, gráficos exquisitos, gran personalización, una gran banda sonora, una campaña bastante larga y una historia interesante, si bien es más simple que otros juegos del genero la verdad es que, da mucha mas libertad para poder actuar, no hagan caso a los trolls y los fanboys de xcom que flodean las reviews, es juego bastante bueno y que si tienes gamepass deberias probarlo.
-
May 2, 2020This game is way much better than I expected, a real great surprise from Xbox game studio friends.
-
Apr 29, 2020microsoft. mejoro mucho y sobretodo los aciertos y dificultades normalmente tiene los xcom.
-
May 6, 2020Well, i dont know about you, but i liked more than gears 5. A lot of little details in gameplay, character customization and actions you can do in the game makes it way better than the horrible xcom chimera fornite squad. The story is at the same level of the previous gears. Recommended.
-
Apr 28, 2020Muy buen juego tactico, han simplificado el tema de los recursos de las bases tan habitual en este tipo de juegos. La personalización de pjs esta bien y la atmosfera del lore de Gears of war también muy conseguido. 100% recomendable. Y el hecho de salir en gamepass es algo que la gente que no lo tenga no sabe lo que se pierde. Muy bien Microsoft.
-
Apr 30, 2020Um bom e competente jogo do gênero. Realmente é bem impressionante o que o pessoal conseguiu fazer. Quando comparo com o Chimera e o Phoenix Point chega a dar pena deles. Gráficos no padrão Gears. As missões são um pouco repetitivas e o jogo tem alguns bugs, mas de modo geral é bem bacana e com um gameplay super viciante e satisfatório.

May 5, 2020Competent squad tactics game. 7/10, not essential. Play if you're a huge fan of the genre or Gears.
Pro:
-Fun overwatch and one-hit-kill mechanics
Neutral:
-Unit customization
-Environments/maps
Cons:
-Atmosphere
-Drama/Narrative
-Repetitive, meaningless missions -
Nov 16, 2020Jogo nada interessante, fica devendo em gráficos e criatividade muito monótono basta 1 hora de jogo pra você não querer mais nem a cor do game sinceramente me sentiria envergonhado de lançar algo do tipo para novas gerações, Microsoft novamente fica devendo no requisito capricho e amor nos jogos exclusivos
-
Apr 29, 2020One of the worst "x-com" like games I've had the pleasure of playing.
Every single aspect of this game besides the graphics is simply mediocre and/or bland.
The only upside to this game is the Microsoft is more or less giving it away through game pass. -
Apr 28, 2020Would have been a 10 for me if not for the lack of a more meaty strategic layer but hey, its Gears, not Xcom and this is one solid Gears game that feels like a Gears game. Solid sound and visuals really immerses player into the Gears world. Somehow it feels like Space Marines to me, fast paced, high stake, badass characters and executions u nvever get sick of.
-
Apr 29, 2020Visually this is stunning, loving the detail of the art and general change in scenery this game has. While it lacks some of features when compared to others in the genre i feel this makes up for it in abundance with amusing VO /character interaction and really intense clutch moments. Best in Genre on a technical level for sure.
-
Apr 28, 2020Excelente juego, es de mis favoritos (hasta ahora) del genero junto a XCOM aunque tiene muchas cosas de él, tiene esa esencia Gears que le hacia falta a la franquicia.
Recomendadisimo totalmente si te gusta este tipo de jeugos. -
Apr 29, 2020Best ever tactic strategy! Wonderful designed combat mechanics, interesting bosses. BLOOD & GUTS! Yeah baby! It's a tactic strategy about real men! It's not like piece of **** **** like x-com chimera squad yhat was made for ****s by ****s!
-
Apr 29, 2020AMAZING tactic experience, im the person who always plays tactic games. And gears tactics is just AWESOME. Have a lot of action, a lot of hard choices, I love this game.
-
Apr 29, 2020I am very surprised how much fun this game is. I love XCom but I think this game is just more fun and Plays better but it still provdes enough tactics to be an in Depth Strategy game.
Cut Scenes and Story is great and actually quite lengthy so I can definitley recommend this game! -
Apr 29, 2020Excelente ponta pé no gênero , se equiparando muito bem com jogos do gênero como xcom e mutant year zero , além dos gráficos e dublagem excelentes , espero poder continuar vendo próximos jogos da saga em outras plataformas simultaneamente com o Xbox
-
Apr 30, 2020Good volume, Good characters, Good action, Good X-COMish but still unique gameplay.
-
Apr 29, 2020This game is more casual than XCom series, but it introduces some cool new mechanics and I'm actually enjoying it more. Graphics and cutscenes are awesome and I feel like playing regular Gears game.
-
May 7, 2020
-
Apr 30, 2020Brilliant. Hope to see a sequel. I would love to see some base mechanics added to the game, just to add more replayability. But this game is so much fun.
-
May 1, 2020Didn't really play or was into Gears games at all before this came out. But once I gave this a try, it really blew me away. It gives you vibes of Xcom Strategy and the classic Gears feel and mixes together really well.
-
May 1, 2020An interesting game and different from the other Gears released I liked the style I hope the Coalition releases more games from the franchise so who knows a battle royale in the style of Cod Warzone
-
May 3, 2020Xbox com on roids Give it a go.only bad thing I could say is I wish u could build base and did more stuff in menu and vs but this game dose it dose better than any over out there action and doesn't stop boss are great .dont miss out
-
May 10, 2020I haven't finished it yet but this game is great. I love turn based action games and this one is on XCOM 2 or Jagged Alliance 2 level!

Apr 28, 2020mediocre, quiere y copia toda de xcom pero sin llegar a su calidad, es una basura
-
May 8, 2020The Game is well optimized and THIS IS a real Gow game, but xcom style view... Well done cutscenes and graphic... A little repetitieve but very funny and very good game. Buy it when price lower a little.
-
Apr 30, 2020Interesting game, makes you want to dust if the old gears titles. Would be great to have multiplayer support.
-
Oct 27, 2020Bugged mess. Four missions in, two restarts becouse of bugs. Can't recommend it
-
Apr 29, 2020Mecosoft milking an already dead franchise, Gears of War is nothing without Cliffy B.
-
May 10, 2020Since Starcraft 2 I haven't had so much fun in a strategy game, Gears Tactics is excellent.
Nice graphic's, music and narrative. -
Apr 30, 2020Very good game, better than Phoenix Point. Phoenix Point has some cool additions for a tactical turn based combat game but seemed janky. This game is fluid and fun with great story and fair RNG.
-
Jul 1, 2020Beat Gears Tactics on Experienced difficulty. Very well done game.
Game(s) like: XCom
Pros:
- Kinda enjoyed the no grid system
- Graphics, presentation were top notch
- Just a fun game to play with a good mix of skills to make the tactics interesting
Cons:
- About 20% too long - the side missions dragged
- The navigation system to add equipment was kinda annoying -

Apr 28, 2020The game isn't that bad to me but it looks like a plagia of Phoenix Point to me, the only good point of this game it's the Gears licence.
-
Jul 2, 2020I love the strategic video games, this genre is one of my favorites and I can tell this, this game is a Masterpiece great story, interesting characters, beautiful graphics what else do you need! I can't wait to play the Xbox One version.
-
May 1, 2020Un juego asombroso, la jugabilidad y el diseño de los ecenarios son muy sobresalientes, magnifico juego e historia.
-
Nov 18, 2020Some of the best cutscenes in gears. Interesting gameplay. Amazing story that finally gives a look at new characters past.

May 1, 2020The game is good for a moment I think ok base turn my type of game will be straight forward but notis really intense more than Xcom, the only complaint is the gear upgrades is so slowly and tedious chance and upgrade it
-
Jul 8, 2020This game is extremely well designed, has kept me interested for weeks. A slight let down is the weapon/gear management, I don't find it too polished. But the gameplay more than compensates this. remember: OVERWATCH.

May 3, 2020Good tactics for 2020. It game is good than X-COM Chimera Squad. Waiting for 2 part.
-
May 4, 2020Es un juego excelente, con una gran historia, muy bien ambientado en el universo Gears, aunque xcom "comenzó" todo gears tactics lo refinó.
-
May 9, 2020Nice job Microsoft. Very good game. I'm not a big fan of Turn Based strategy game. but this game really good.
-
May 10, 2020If you like turn base tactic games like Xcom or Mutant Year Zero you need to check this game out. Im not saying its the best of them but it feels fresh, combat is more dynamic, you will not get bored! must play
-
Jan 31, 2021Uno de los mejores juegos de estrategias que he jugado en esta generación pasada y en esta actual incredible espero la continuación con muchas ansias
-
Jun 21, 2020Great TBS game, if youare a fan of xcom this a game for you. It also nicely expands the Gears Universe
-

Oct 15, 2020Very simple and shallow. Tries to be like that alien game but fails in every way.
-
Dec 18, 2020Endlich Feierabend, ab nachhause und vielleicht zocken.
Hm, Gears Tactics? Naja, Lust hab ich da nicht so recht drauf aber probieren wir es halt mal.
Acht Stunden später...
Ups, schon 0.30Uhr?!? Hm, eine Runde noch? -

Jun 1, 2020Very cool and fun game. The boss battles are great. I did enjoy the hit system better than x-com. It seemed way more fair and I rarely missed those 90% shots.
The game would be better if it had a way to filter equipment as scrolling through it is a pain when equipping each gear. Mission variety needs improving too.
Overall a great start to what I hope becomes a series of games. -
Jun 18, 2020This is a must play for any strategy fan. But it's not your usual gears game.
-

Jun 20, 2020+good plot
+good graphics
+interesting game-design
+ok gameplay
~no destruction sysem, shame. inventory made not informative and not comfortable to use and we have no base as in xcom
much better then xcom.sjw.poLice
would recommend even if u don't know what is gears of war
-small maps is not ok
-repitative missions is not ok
810 -
Apr 23, 2021Great idea but it fails due to receptiveness' of several missions, it is the same over and over. The controls and gameplay itself is great, it would of been amazing if the creators were less lazy and actually made every mission different, I'd rather have a game half as long with zero mission repeats.

Sep 14, 2020Gears Tactics is an exciting game with incredibly beautiful graphics, interesting missions and well-developed mechanics, which could have been better if the authors of the game paid more attention to the story. Anyway we have a great project for fans of the genre, regardless of their loyalty to the Gears of War franchise.
-
Aug 21, 2020Gears Tactics proves that there is a place for an awesome turn-based strategy game in the Gears universe. Now, someone needs to develop that game.
-
LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jul 23, 2020Gears of War from a bird's perspective. An interesting system of action points is brought down by repetitive content with a boring grind of boxes with equipment and a weak story. [Issue#303]
