For the first time since the inception of the franchise, Gears of War: Reloaded is purchasable on the PlayStation 5. This partnership was recently seen when we got to play Forza Horizon 5 on the PS as well.

This Third-person shooter game is set on the war-torn planet of Sera, following the theme of human suffering and the desperate fight for survival.

You will get to play in both a competitive setting as well as a campaign mode with a gripping and gritty tale.
