With cross-play across all platforms, you and your friends can squad up no matter where you play — no Microsoft account required.
However, signing in with a Microsoft account unlocks full cross-platform functionality. It enables cross-progression, so your Campaign and multiplayer progress carries across devices. It also allows you to send invites and play with friends across platforms — like Xbox to PlayStation or Steam to Xbox.
Honestly, this is the way to handle the incorporation of platform-specific accounts; totally optional, but actually gives you a sensible benefit if you choose to go that route. Sony could learn a lot here.
Absolutely, that sounds like a real incentive. It doesn’t feel like an artificial thing.
The first one was great. So full of camp and didn’t take itself seriously like the later games did.
WOO WOO!
ITS THE COLE TRAIN BABY
Finally I’ll be able to replay the first Gears of War.
If it runs on the Steam Deck, I might even play it there instead of on my ps5.
While I enjoyed Gears of War Ultimate Edition they really should’ve remastered 2,3 and Judgement.
I would’ve really liked playing the RAAM DLC again with higher graphics and on PC. Ah the nostalgia.
While I appreciate it means its finally coming to Steam, I’m sad this mean no 2 and 3
Wow this is awesome, loved the first game. Can’t wait for this one! Played it so much as a teen back in the day
