The Coalition and Xbox Game Studios brought Gears 5 to E3 2019. 1 / 6
Attendees got to go hands-on with the game's brand-new Escape mode... 2 / 6
...a three-player co-op experience in which the squad needs to escape an area (a maze, really) before the toxins or the Swarm kill them. 3 / 6
Gears 5's best attributes are showcased in this mode, including teamwork, combat, and graphics. 4 / 6
However, there are some notable drawbacks, particularly the character abilities. 5 / 6
But the biggest disappointment here is there it doesn't innovate on an age-old mode that gamers have seen dozens of times before. 6 / 6
