"Take the information with a pinch of the 'ol salt since it comes from Alinea Analytics, and while they claim to be accurate, there's really no way of verifying their numbers. According to them, Gears: Reloaded, which is a remaster of the original Gears of War, has sold a meagre 259,000 copies on PlayStation. It's considerably less than other Xbox ports have managed. Forza Horizon 5, for example, has sold millions of copies."
"So, how is the game doing outside of PlayStation? Alinea says it has hit around 1.3 million downloads so far, the vast majority of which have come from Game Pass. Over on Steam, I reported the other day that it was suffering from mixed reviews and low player numbers. Perhaps the better option for Microsoft and The Coalition would have been to launch the entire original trilogy in one super-package of awesomeness rather than doing the first game yet again."
August 26 marked the PlayStation debut of Gears of War: Reloaded. Sales on PlayStation reportedly total about 259,000 copies according to Alinea Analytics, though their figures are unverified. Global downloads are around 1.3 million, with the vast majority coming through Game Pass. Steam reception shows mixed reviews and low player counts. Forza Horizon 5 achieved far higher sales as an Xbox port. A bundled release of the original trilogy might have performed better than a single-game remaster. Gears of War: E-Day, a prequel, is scheduled to launch next year.
