I noticed while doing my Gears Tactics review, that a mix of different soldiers can quickly ensure that you have the upper hand at any point in the map, yet always remember that two doctors can also be very useful on the battlefield. You can then choose the remaining troops. It is not always possible to choose all four characters for a mission yourself, for example, many of the story missions require Gabe Diaz and Sid Redburn. You also have scouts, soldiers with heavy artillery, and the Vanguard soldiers. Gabe Diaz is a field doctor who has healing skills. So the strategy starts even before the mission has even started. When you complete this goal, you will receive a special weapon crate. In addition, the missions all have an additional goal. Reading the descriptions of the missions is very important. Most missions consist of four characters, but certain main and side missions require you to do it with less. It is therefore up to you to regulate the characters on the map and at the same time ensure that you are not ambushed. When you have started your mission, you will end up on a map where fog restricts a large part of the field of view. The game’s name says it all, but The Coalition and Xbox Game Studios’ Gears Tactics is a turn-based strategy game. The end goal is Ukkon, but he is in control and cannot be killed just like that. The side missions are therefore logical missions that mainly concern finding new soldiers, supplies, or sabotaging the Locust. His dry humor is a delightful addition and I couldn’t resist taking him on the missions as much as possible.ĭue to the structure of the story, they intertwine the main missions and the obligatory side missions with each other. Gabe Diaz is not only a badass, but he is also very charming. You will see that in the cutscenes, not only do The Coalition and Xbox Game Studios share the story, but also the relationships between the characters. I noticed while doing my Gears Tactics review, that the game shares the story with you in chunks and therefore follows a linear path. Everything is recorded and the cutscenes are of good quality. The main and side missions are chosen from the menu, giving you the information you need right away. Take note that Gears Tactics is not an open-world game where you can wander outside the missions. However, he does not have to do this alone, more heroes will join the team and he will eventually train the soldiers. Gabe Diaz’s main goal is to find Ukkon’s weakness and get close to him. When Gabe returns, his friends have been murdered by the Locust and it has become a lot easier for him to accept his task.

However, he cannot escape him when Sid Redburn tells him that they must retrieve a secret file. At that time, Gabe Diaz wants nothing to do with Prescott. We also get to see Prescott’s reaction, because he bombs the world and sacrifices must be made if you want to win a war.

Just before the game started, Emergence Day took place, the day when the Locust makes a full attack on the world. Gabe Diaz appears right at the beginning of the game, but it takes a while for Ukkon to appear. Although, you can’t really call Ukkon a person. The story is really only about two people, Gabe Diaz and Ukkon.

This makes the game’s story easy to understand for newcomers and provides a fresh perspective for fans. With Gears Tactics, you go back twelve years. The events in Gears of War have not yet taken place at all.
