Gears of War: E-Day took center stage at Unreal Fest Chicago, and Coalition showed how it is utilizing Unreal Engine to bring the world of this prequel to life in a way never seen before.
The walkthrough showed Marcus Fenix in the city of Kalona, but this time without the threat of enemies around every corner. Instead, this let the team show off the hundreds of light sources with MegaLights that "greatly improve the visual fidelity of everything from environment destruction to volumetrics and muzzle flashes."
It was also shown how all of these new tools allow the devs to iterate faster and increase per pixel-visual complexity without compromising resolution or framerate.
See how it all comes together soon, as Gears of War: E-Day will be released on Xbox Series X/S and PC on October 6, 2026.
