We are knee-deep in new gaming announcements at E3, and the latest one to get us all giddy is Gears 5.
We finally have a release date for the latest game in the Wars series, and good news – it's coming out this year.
Microsoft gave us a brand new trailer, as well as a release date of September 10, which is much earlier than we had anticipated.
Luckily, pre-orders are already up and available, so you can guarantee your copy immediately.
GAME is stocking pre-orders for Gears 5 right now, letting you pick up the game on Xbox One for £54.99.
This is the first time that a Gears of War game will feature a female protagonist, which is super exciting for the genre and for gaming in general.
What to Read Next
The bonus is that you will now be able to play this game online with your friends even if they are playing on their PC, thanks to the Xbox cross-platform network.
Microsoft confirmed the game would be in 4K HDR and run at a silky-smoth 60FPS when it arrives, so we can start shooting the horde in crystal, glory ultra HD.
As mentioned, if you pre-order now, Gears 5 will arrive at your front door on September 10.
