Gears 5 is releasing very soon so we travelled to The Coalition - the studio behind the series going forward - to check it out. 1 / 7

The Gears of War franchise is expanding a big way with comics, novels, and even spinoff games. 2 / 7

Dave Bautista and Terry Crews are still dying for this movie to happen and both want to be in it. Let's make that happen! 7 / 7
