Antagonists in Gears of War: E-Day
The Coalition revealed new details about Gears of War: E-Day during the Official Xbox Podcast at gamescom, discussing the game's focus on brotherhood, the new antagonist Vraahk, and how the campaign explores the first two days of the Locust invasion in the city of Kalona. Creative Director Matt Searcy and Campaign Design Director Raul Figueroa explained how the prequel setting allows players to witness the world before its destruction, making the loss more poignant.
The Coalition's upcoming prequel Gears of War: E-Day delivers a campaign that balances classic cover-shooter fundamentals with meaningful new systems like weapon mods and Tactical Gear. A hands-on session covering Act 2's bridge and downtown sections left the author more excited for the full release than the initial reveal trailer managed.
