Gears Tactics , a join collaboration between Splash Damage and The Coalition, is also getting upgraded to 4k and 60 frames per second as well. Outside of enhancing already available titles and keeping Gears 5 updated with new content, it's unknown what direction The Coalition may be heading in for its next major title. Gears 6 seems like a no-brainer, but only time will t
Is there an enemy ‘overwatching' near the end of the battle or in a tight spot? Don't forget a grenade. Although it is a good idea to save missiles, they usually have massive adverse effects on enemies because of their long cooldown feature. Even formidable enemies like Kantus and Boomers will have it extremely rough with stint grenades. They can revive injured allies from afar and offer the entire battalion with a new lease of life if they are in a gr
Completing research on a new piece of technology gives players a sense of being one step closer to winning the war against the alien invaders. Gears Tactics doesn’t have a research system, and instead uses a more character driven system for story advancem
While Gears Tactics doesn't have the mod support XCOM 2 has, there are a few mods on the market that can improve or change the game. Most of them have to do with rebalancing weapons, spawning more enemies in missions, and changes to loot boxes. These mods can either be to make the game easier or harder, depending on which
If anyone wants to play a new turn-based strategy game that's on the cheaper side, consider looking into Othercide . It has a lot of gothic horror with a lot of style, and it is similar to Gears Tactics in that the game requires players to go on several missions before facing off against a b

Rare currently has a number of projects in development at the moment, with the first being a Sea of Thieves port to the Xbox Series X. Like Gears 5 , the open sea pirate adventure is going to be optimized for the new console this holiday season, though Microsoft isn't giving any details as to what that actual means. So far, the company has simply said that Sea of Thieves will take advantage of the advanced hardware inside the Xbox Serie
Downed allies are in a precarious position. Attacks from enemies can easily render them useless for good, resulting in a failed mission or death of the associate.So try and rescue them any time there is an opportunity. And as this goes on, be careful. It is always good to first clear any enemies close as going for them in a dangerous situation might cost a player AP, which would have otherwise been used to do other thi
Naturally, the upcoming survival title Grounded was also shown off through a humorous new trailer which even had a surprising shout out to Cyberpunk 2077 . Players can shrink down and survive starting on July
If there is one aspect of gears of war e day Tactics that is obviously better than the XCOM games, it’s the boss battles. XCOM doesn’t really have boss battles; there is a final engagement against stronger enemies than those normally encountered, but that’s not really a "boss battle". Occasionally, players in Gears Tactics will find themselves facing an enormous creature that towers over the battlefield. Defeating these gigantic boss creatures gives players an immediate sense of accomplishment that is sometimes lacking in the XCOM games. These boss battles also really help break up the monotony of fighting the same alien soldiers over and over – which is a problem from which the XCOM games suffer on occas
A standard in the customization of soldiers for turn-based strategy games, each class has a skill tree that can be upgraded to allow them all to do different things. In Gears Tactics, the skills fall into four different subclasses for each cl
As mentioned before, each unit has a set number of actions they can take in a single term, and these actions are defined by action point. Points can be spent on moving, shooting, throwing grenades, and using abilities. When using an action a certain number of points will be used up, however by performing an execution on an enemy, a player regains action points. Theoretically, if a player chained multiple executions their turn could last fore
The character-driven story in Gears Tactics is more compelling, and allows for voiced characters whose banter is amusing at times. For a player’s first play-through, this method of storytelling allows for a more interesting narrative, but the player will already know the story on subsequent play-throughs. In XCOM , each game is different. The soldiers will be different, the player can build their base in a different country, and the locations under attack will be different. Additionally, a player could focus on different avenues of research and technology (or psionics) than in previous playthroughs. This makes XCOM infinitely more replaya
