Context
The absence of major titles at awards shows often leads to rumors about development problems or postponements. Sources linked to the studio, however, reinforced the forecast of 2026 as the launch window. No specific date or season has yet been set.
What has already been announced about the game
Gears of War: E-Day was officially presented in 2024. The narrative focuses on the beginning of the conflict against the Locust Army in Sera. The Coalition says that production is underway and that more details will be released as the schedule progresses.
Conclusion
The Coalition confirms that Gears of War: E-Day remains in development for 2026. The absence at The Game Awards 2025 doesn't mean a delay; just that the game was left off the stage on that occasion. The storyline promises to explore events 14 years before the original saga, with the young versions of Marcus and Dom, and will be built in Unreal Engine 5 for Windows and Xbox Series X/S.
