Experience the game that launched one of the most celebrated sagas in entertainment with Gears of War: Ultimate Edition. The shooter that defined the first generation of HD gaming has been painstakingly remastered in 1080P and modernized for Xbox One, and is packed full of new content including five campaign chapters never released on Xbox.
The story of “Gears of War” thrusts gamers into a deep and harrowing battle for survival against the Locust Horde, a nightmarish race of creatures that surface from the depths of the planet. Players live and breathe the role of Marcus Fenix. A disgraced former war hero, Marcus seeks personal redemption as he leads his fire team against an onslaught of merciless warriors from below.
Rebuilt from the ground up
The landmark original Gears of War has been completely rebuilt from the ground up in full 1080P. Every aspect of the game including lighting, environments, characters, and cinematic scenes have been beautifully recreated - this is the first at its best.
New campaign missions
Included are five exhilarating campaign missions never played before on console that follow Delta Squad as they battle their way to Timgad Station.
Gears of War comic books
Go deeper into Gears fiction with five Gears of War comic books, which can be unlocked and read within the game
Good price, although a slight increase (80p or so).
There are a couple of alternatives for a physical format. Music Magpie have 3 in-stock (Used) for £7.51 or £10.99 new at 365Games.
Heated.

I bought this for about £25 on release but do you still get the codes for Gears 1,2,and 3 if you buy this? A bit pointless giving you the code for a backwards compatible Gears 1, considering I'd just bought a remastered version with some extra campaign, but worth downloading to see just how good Gears was 10 or 11 years ago. Strangely I never got the code for Gears Judgement but that's a blessing in disguise but I never finished Gears 2 and I will get round to having a crack at that. Why do Xbox 360 games seem so much better to play on the Xbox One?
