Nyligen lät The Coalition-chefen Rod Fergusson utannonsera att han lämnar The Coalition för att istället arbeta hos Blizzad, där han ska ansvara för Diablo-serien. Så vad händer med Gears of War nu då? Microsoft verkar inte vara bekymrade iallafall, och i en intervju hos Games Industry berättar nu Xbox Game Studios-chefen Matt Booty att fanskaran växer kontinuerligt:
"I feel great about Gears 5. I will start with what's most important, in that the quality and the craft of the game is world class. I say that definitively without having to put any exceptions or caveats around that. We are particularly happy with the progress that they've made in terms of accessibility, diversity representation in the game, and some of the awards it got for things like audio. We are still seeing a tremendous amount of energy around the passionate and global fanbase. That group continues to grow.
We have continued growth in merchandise, linear media... Universal still has the option for the movie out there. So we feel great about it. And in terms of the game's performance, it has done very well within Game Pass."
The Coalition arbetar säkerligen på Gears 6 i dagsläget och som Booty poängterar är det också en film på gång hos Universal.
