Cliff Bleszinski, creator of Xbox's popular third-person shooter franchise Gears of War, has made mention of the next title in the series rumored to be underway at The Coalition. It's been about four years since the release of Gears 5 in 2019 and close to three since its acclaimed Hivebusters DLC. Since then, Gears fans have been eagerly awaiting what's next for the franchise amid swirling rumors of The Coalition canceling two new IPs in favor of starting work on Gears 6.
