This year, games that were previously Xbox-exclusive properties have been migrating to PS5, including the upcoming Gears of War remaster, Gears of War Reloaded. Just under two decades ago, the original Gears of War was one of Xbox’s signature titles. Now, the co-creator of the franchise, Cliff Bleszinski, has shared his thoughts about seeing Gears of War appear on a PlayStation console.
“It doesn’t feel strange,” said Bleszinski during an interview with Eurogamer. “I’m thrilled that more people are going to get to experience a big part of my legacy that I worked so hard on.”
Bleszinski also noted that he’s interested in returning to the series as a consultant, but “crickets” has been the response from the devs. Although Bleszinski left the Gears franchise years ago, he has shared his belief that the franchise should be rebooted. Bleszinski has also revealed that he pitched an Alien game prior to Disney’s purchase of Fox.
