Gears Tactics Announced

After months of keeping it under wraps, I’m finally able to share what I’ve been working on since joining Splash Damage a year ago. Microsoft officially revealed Gears Tactics at E3 as a new turn-based tactics game set in the Gears of War universe.

My Role

I joined Splash Damage in July 2017 and have been working on Gears Tactics since then. The gameplay shown in the trailer below includes work I contributed to during my first year at the studio, and I’ve since continued working on the campaign as development has progressed.

What is Gears Tactics?

Gears Tactics is a turn-based tactical strategy game set 12 years before the events of the original Gears of War. The game is developed by Splash Damage in partnership with The Coalition and brings the series into turn-based tactical combat.

Gears Tactics is in development now. More details (including release timing) will be shared at a later date.

Press Coverage

Gears Tactics has provided a great opportunity for me to expand my design experience to encompass the much-loved turn-based tactics genre. I can’t wait for people to see more!

Until then, here’s some coverage from the announcement.
