Is it guns with chainsaws on them? Is it Marcus Fenix\u2019s doo rag? Is it trailers with sad <em>Mad World<\/em> covers? Or is it general nostalgia for one of Microsoft\u2019s most iconic Xbox 360-era franchises? Cole Train baby?<\/p>\n<p>Well the right answer should be Horde Mode. Arguably <em>Gears<\/em>\u2019 greatest contribution to online shooter co-op multiplayer was the novel idea that you and your friends could team up to fight increasingly tough waves of monsters. Pretty much every other game ripped off this survival concept. So whenever a new <em>Gears of War<\/em> game comes out, the team has to prove once again that they aren\u2019t only the original but also the best when it comes to Horde Mode.<\/p>\n<p>So check out this first trailer for Horde Mode in <em>Gears 5<\/em>.<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex-video widescreen embed\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vYjKYNvAm4s?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><em>Gears 5<\/em> isn\u2019t trying to fix what isn\u2019t broken. It\u2019s not like they added Funko Pops are anything. Horde Mode still has you coordinating with teammates to build defenses and take down as many foes as you can while achieving key objectives. The game just gives you more options for strategic slaughter. Perhaps inspired by hero-based multiplayer games like <em>Apex Legends <\/em>and <em>Overwatch<\/em>, each character now has a unique Ultimate ability to use on the battlefield. Hijack enemies, call down airstrikes, cloak yourself, and see through walls.<\/p>\n<p>In <em>Gears 5<\/em> Horde Mode you\u2019ll primarily play as characters from the campaign, including new lead Kait Diaz. But this isn\u2019t canon, so might as well branch out a little bit too. You can also play as a couple of doomed Spartans from\u00a0<em>Halo: Reach<\/em> to almost have the Marcus Fenix\/Master Chief crossover team-up of your 2008 dreams. There\u2019s even a <em>Terminator: Dark Fate<\/em>\u00a0character pack coming featuring the killer robot and the killer Linda Hamilton.<\/p>\n<p><em>Gears 5<\/em> launches September 10 for PC and Xbox One.
