Epic to reveal new Gears of War at E3

A new entry into Epic Games’ flagship blockbuster franchise Gears of War will be unveiled at E3 next week.

As reported by Game Informer, the game is expected to reveal on Monday. The upcoming cover for the magazine shows a silhouette of a character in chains with guards either side, whilst a war ravages the city in the background.

The shadowy figure is thought to be the game’s hero Marcus Fenix, suggesting the title could be a prequel to the hit trilogy.

The latest entry in the hit series will be released on Xbox 360.
