The cogs of war spin again on October 11 [Gears of War 4]

Gears of War fans may begin getting excited as the worldwide release date of Gears of War 4 has been finalized and announced. Adam Fletcher, Director of Community for the Coalition revealed this morning that the game will be available on October 11, 2016.

The game is launching exclusively on the Xbox One, although given Microsoft’s latest PC games initiative, one would expect that a PC version isn’t too far behind. This chapter will follow a whole new group of Gears as they embark on what could be the darkest Gears adventure yet.

If October seems too far away, remember that the multiplayer beta for the game kicks off later this month. This will give fans a chance to get a little taste of the action quite a few months ahead of the game’s official launch. The beta will be available to anyone who played Gears of War: Ultimate Edition on either the PC or Xbox One beginning April 18, 2016. It will open up to everyone else a week later, on April 25.
