Gears of War: Reloaded will be released on August 26. For a price tag of $39.99, it will be available on Xbox Series X / S, PlayStation, and PC. It will support cross-play and cross-progression across all platforms.

“As we approach the 20th anniversary of Gears of War in 2026, we’re reflecting on what this franchise means,” Mike Crump, Studio Head at The Coalition, said on the Xbox website.

“It’s about the stories we’ve told, the friendships we’ve built, and the unforgettable moments we’ve shared together. With Gears of War: Reloaded, we’re opening that door to more players than ever,” Crump added.

Developed by The Coalition in partnership with Sumo Interactive and Disbelief, the new version of the original 2006 game will come with improved audio and visual graphics, including higher resolutions and frame rates.

Crump further explained that “Gears of War: Reloaded includes the full breadth of content from the Gears of War: Ultimate Edition, delivering the most complete version of the original game to date.”

All the improvements fans can expect to see in the remastered version are:

  1. 4K resolution

  3. 120 FPS in Multiplayer
  4. High Dynamic Range (HDR)
  5. Dolby Vision & 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos
