The Coalition has managed to successfully bring every great elements from previous games into a new setting. Whether you go for single-player, multiplayer or horde mode, GoW4 hast plenty to offer. The visuals are stunning and the gameplay is the best in the series thus far; and despite shortcomings in the story and development of characters, GoW4 is easily one of the best third-person shooters of this generation.
The Coalition’s development team did a fantastic job adopting the Gears of War series. They’ve preserved what makes it special in our hearts and added in new bells and whistles which are absolutely welcome.
Gears of War 4 is an impressive return to form.

A classic Microsoft game. The game is good, but it's no different from the older games in the series.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)
Brutal action, addictive multiplayer, shredded bodies and stunning visuals. Developers from The Coalition showed that they belong among the leaders in this field. The fourth part of Gears of War can only be recommended. [Issue #268]

A GoW game made for GoW lovers: it manages to successfully leverage all of the series strengths with a convincing story and a new cast of characters, awesome graphics and a contents-packed multiplayer, even if they're not trying to innovate the series.

This game is no as bad as people said. True, it is not as dark and damp ad the first trilogy, but I like the new colorful aesthetics. This game is better than number 5.

Gears 4 is a painstakingly crafted love letter to those that have a meaty soft spot for the franchise. Aside from the costly cosmetic-focussed transactions, this is the exact experience that fans have been waiting for.

Gears of War 4 is not a breakthrough for the franchise, but it underlines a successful transition from Epic Games to The Coalition. We would have loved more risk-taking, but overall it's still a great game.

This is still a franchise about muscle-bound men and alpha women using machine guns fixed with chainsaws to eviscerate battalions of antagonists. But I love it unlike any other big-budget shooter series.

The competitive multiplayer isn’t much of an evolution from previous efforts, and the campaign drags for a bit, but the high points make it worth the ride and the new Horde mode is simply stellar. If you’ve enjoyed this franchise previously or have a few friends looking for co-op, give Gears of War 4 a close look – it’s definitely worth the time.

The game's successes as a continuation of Gears of War's narrative falter in the face of stubbornly archaic gameplay.

This is an amazing game and one of the best of the generation. Graphically it looks just as good if not better than many next Gen games. Story wise is amazing. The story is fun and focuses on new characters that I enjoyed and loved as well as giving you great nostalgia with old characters. The gameplay is the best the series has ever had which is saying something as gears is widely considered one of the best playing third person shooters out there. It’s a fun game with a great story and great characters, it’s also super funny. If you have game pass playing this along with the other gears games is a no brainer. If you have a Xbox and have been on the fence about gears 4, I say do it! You won’t regret it! This game is clearly getting review bombed by PlayStation fans. The Xbox store has it at a 4.5/5 stars. Critics also loved it. This game is criminally overlooked. Do not let biased reviews misinform you.

Esperaba más de la campaña, sus dialogos son en su mayoría sozos, aburridos y cringe, mientras que la campaña es corta pero entretenida pues se siente más como una intro u prologo para lo que tenían en mente para futuro, los gráficos y mapeado un 10/10 y pues no logre probar el multijugador ya que nunca a sido de mi interés pese a lo entretenido y adictivo que es el MJ de Gears

Ganska bra spel. Det börjar ju såklart bli lite repetitive när spelen handlar om precis samma sak varje gång. Jag tycker dock att dem gjorde boss fighter mycket roligare och bättre. Grafikmässigt är det ju såklart ett superstort hopp grån Gears 3 eftersom det är på en helt ny konsol.

Dificultad artificial la cual se basa en enemigos esponjas de daño en espacios cerrados mientras te atacan enemigos aleatorios (esto refiriendome a la maxima dificultar) El modo horda es bueno, pero los enemigos siguen siendo mas que algo que debes planear como enfrentar solo esponjas de daño las cuales se limitan a estar parados disparando directamente confaidos en que ganaran ya que recisten hasta 12 segundos de daño consecutivo sin parar. La unca "tactica" que te incentiva a cambiar de cobertura como en anteriores entregas de la saga es que los enemigos se lanzan cual Kamikase hacia ti resistiendo todo el daño para luego eliminarte de un solo golpe, todo esto un tiempo aproximado de 0.5 a 3 segundos, siendo una jugabilidad injusta a menos de que lo juegues en las minimas dificultades. Teniendo mas protagonismo la suerte de que las balas no te den a tu capacidad para resolver problemas en situaciones apremiantes. Por otro lado los protagonistas carecen de alma o carisma a especion de un par de secundarios, y el diseño de los enemigos es muy bueno visualmente, pero esto no puede zolapar el pesimo gameplay que han creado.

Para 3 grandes jogos no inicio teve uma continuação fraca para a historia e não teve inovação na jogabilidade.
