  • E-Day serves as a prequel to the original Gears of War, featuring Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago.
  • The involvement of People Can Fly has been warmly welcomed in the development of the new Gears of War title.

Besides The Coalition, People Can Fly is also collaborating on the development of “Gears of War: E-Day.” Initially unveiled in June 2024, “Gears of War: E-Day” is an upcoming third-person shooter game planned for Xbox Series X/S and PC platforms. At present, there’s no announced release date for this project.

14 years before the events portrayed in the first “Gears of War” game, we have the prequel titled “Gears of War: E-Day“. Set on the planet Sera, this game revolves around familiar characters like Marcus Fenix and Dom Santiago as they battle through Emergence Day, the day the Locust Horde attacked. As the sixth mainline installment in the beloved series, “Gears of War: E-Day” is the first new “Gears” game since the 2020 spin-off called “Gears Tactics“. Since its announcement, developers have been disclosing details about it, including the voice actors playing Marcus and Dom in “E-Day“. Latest news also confirms that People Can Fly is joining the development team for this upcoming “Gears of War” title.

According to an official announcement, People Can Fly has been working on the development of ‘Gears of War: E-Day’ alongside The Coalition. This collaboration is seen as a great honor for People Can Fly, as it allows them to revisit the popular ‘Gears of War’ series, which holds a significant place in their history. Sebastian Wojciechowski, CEO of People Can Fly, considers this partnership a privilege and an exciting opportunity. He expressed his gratitude towards the trust and support shown by their partners during this project. Development Director Guillaume Barry mentioned that the team is putting all their effort into creating a game that will surpass expectations. Meanwhile, Mike Crump from The Coalition expressed pleasure at having the new team on board for ‘E-Day’, describing it as a return to what makes ‘Gears of War’ games unique and genuine.

Gears of War: E-Day Reveals Co-Developer People Can Fly

For those new to Gears of War, the name “People Can Fly” might not be immediately familiar, but it could spark recognition for fans who played 2013’s Gears of War: Judgment or any games from the original trilogy. The studio behind these titles was also responsible for the development of Gears of War: Judgment and worked together with Epic Games, the previous owner of the IP, on the Gears of War trilogy. More recently, People Can Fly released Outriders in 2021, which garnered mixed reviews.

In the days ahead, there’s an air of exhilaration surrounding the Gears of War franchise once more. Alongside the buzz about Gears of War: E-Day, whispers of a potential Gears of War compilation (akin to Halo: The Master Chief Collection) have been circulating, hinting at an unveiling by Xbox in the future. If this turns out to be true, it could serve as a fantastic opportunity for fans to revisit their beloved classics before E-Day finally arrives.
