Microsoft Develops Gears of War Collection, Excludes Multiplayer

Author : Audrey Apr 19,2025

Renowned insider and editor of Windows Central, Jez Corden, has officially confirmed that Microsoft is actively working on the Gears of War Collection. Speculation about this compilation has been rampant, and recent rumors suggested it might exclude the franchise's iconic multiplayer mode. Corden has now verified these claims, stating that the collection will indeed omit competitive online play. However, fans can still look forward to cooperative gameplay alongside the main story campaigns.

According to industry whispers, an announcement for the highly anticipated Gears of War Collection could be made as early as the upcoming Xbox Showcase event in June. While specifics on which titles will be included are still under wraps, insiders speculate that the collection may feature the first three entries in the series.

In parallel, development on the next major installment, Gears of War: E-Day, is progressing using Unreal Engine 5 for PC and Xbox Series X/S platforms. Recent leaks hinted at a potential launch later this year, but Corden remains skeptical, suggesting a more likely release window in 2026.
