While rumors continue to swirl about a Gears of War Collection launching on PlayStation 5, though without any PvP multiplayer, much to the disappointment of fans, it appears that, at one point, a remaster of Gears of War 2, similar to Gears of War Ultimate Edition, was in the works.
E-Day could be targeting 2025. If it hits that ambitious goal, Xbox could finally be back at the top.
Though it never took off the ground, via an environment artist, we now know it was a concept that was actually being considered. That is before work on the multiplayer component of Gears 4 took off.
Taking to Twitter, Ayi Sanchez, currently an artist at Valve, shared a small glimpse at some test material that he had been working on for a potential remaster of the 2008 title. According to Sanchez, that work took place 10 years ago, dating the concept of a Gears of War 2 Remaster to 2015.
In several follow-up tweets, a separate artist, Giuseppe Navarria, shared that it was a potential project for Splash Damage Studio, though shortly after helping bring the Ultimate Edition multiplayer, the team was shifted to Gears 4.
Sanchez corroborated that...
