WMWM Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Microsoft Studios acquires rights to Gears of War franchise Today we're excited to announce that Microsoft Studios has acquired the rights to the “Gears of War” franchise from Epic Games, including rights to all existing and future games, entertainment experiences and merchandise. In addition, we are excited to announce that Black Tusk Studios in Vancouver, BC will take over development of the “Gears of War” franchise and that Rod Fergusson, former Director of Production at Epic Games on the “Gears of War” franchise, will join Microsoft and play a key studio leadership role at Black Tusk on the development of the franchise going forward. We had a chance to chat with Phil Spencer, Head of Microsoft Studios, Hanno Lemke, General Manager of Black Tusk Studios at Microsoft Studios, and Rod Fergusson about the big news. source: http://news.xbox.com/2014/01/games-microsoft-studios-gears-of-war Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aftrunner Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Epic sold it at the right time. Franchise has been downhill since Gears 2. Another game or two and its gonna be totally irrelevant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteWolf Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Franchise has been downhill since Gears 2. Another game or two and its gonna be totally irrelevant. But they brought it back to the top with Gears 3 After the disaster jhandment was, I am not even remotely interested That was made by People Can Fly....Only M.P was developed by Epic...

WhiteWolf Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Yeah, that is good news!! Personally I would like to see a new gears game with the dark gritty atmosphere of Gears 1. It was the best gears. Ya i want complete reboot with new characters nd all....Complete fresh take on the series.... I read somewhere that former SSM and GG guys are working at Black Tusk ...Which is not good imo :| Anyway, let's wait and watch....NextGears is not coming out any soon...We will get it by 2016 i think..lol..tab ka tab dekhengey... Now, let PSfanboys bash Gears for few hours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Tusk is also working on a new AAA game for Xbone..Some stealth action game... This one Nope Microsoft Studios vice president Phil Spencer tells Polygon that that the trailer Black Tusk created for E3 2013 was a “concept piece” and not an in-development game. The demo was created in Unreal Engine, but it was not planned despite the already ongoing conversations between Epic and Microsoft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpearHea:D Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 What I wanna is, whether they now release the Gears 2 and 3 on PC or not. If they release gears trilogy on steam that would be great . Gears of war 1 mp was fast paced and epic . Gridlock and warmachine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
