On April 28, fans will be able to experience one of gaming’s most beloved franchises in a whole new way with the release of Gears Tactics, launching on Windows 10 PC, Steam, and with Xbox Game Pass for PC (Beta) as well as an Xbox console version coming later this year. Gears Tactics has players assume the role of Gabriel “Gabe” Diaz as he recruits, equips, and commands his squad on a mission to hunt down a relentless leader of the Locust army: Ukkon. In addition to lots of strategic maneuvering and intense combat, there are also plenty of achievements to earn as you play through the story (or go out of your way to complete certain challenges).
We’re excited to unveil them here on Xbox Wire and can’t wait to grab some on our own.
