Introducing the Gears of War 4 Limited Edition 2TB Bundle, the First Custom Xbox One S. Last month at E3, we unveiled new additions to our Xbox One family of devices, including the highly-anticipated Xbox One S, the smallest and most compact Xbox yet, starting at $299. Xbox One S features a 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray player and High Dynamic Range (HDR) support for video and gaming to deliver richer, more luminous colors in games like Gears of War 4. We also announced a host of Xbox Live features and updates that will unite gamers across devices, alongside our biggest lineup of games on Xbox One and Windows 10. We’re building a future beyond console generations, letting fans play without boundaries to provide more choice than ever before on where and how they play. To deliver on that promise, we unveiled new accessories like the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller – Gears of War 4 Limited Edition, and were grateful for the amazing reaction from our fans. Today, we’re excited to expand our collection of hardware and accessories even further by introducing the Xbox One S Gears of War 4 Limited Edition 2TB Bundle : the first-ever custom-designed Xbox One S bundle, revealed earlier via Mashable and available for pre-order today. Continuing the collaboration between The Coalition, the studio developing Gears of War 4 , and the Xbox design team, we were inspired by the idea of creating something that looks as if it were lifted right out of the game: a console that bears the battle marks of surviving a desperate fight against Gears of War 4’s ferocious new enemies – the Swarm. Advances in technology and manufacturing techniques really let us free up our imaginations. From the laser-etched scratches, to the bloody thumbprint on the controller’s red metallic D-pad and the iconic Crimson Omen, we looked closely at what we could do with every piece of hardware. We’re always looking for ways to provide value to our customers, which is why the Xbox One S Gears of War 4 Limited Edition 2TB Bundle will be the ultimate Gears bundle, including the following: Gritty, battle-weathered custom Xbox One S console with a massive 2TB hard drive All-new Xbox Wireless Controller – Gears of War 4 Crimson Omen Limited Edition, featuring a textured grip for enhanced comfort; our most reliable wireless signal ever, with up to two times the wireless range compared to previous controllers when used with Xbox One S; and Bluetooth radio, giving you an easy wireless connection to your Windows 10 PCs and tablets 4K Ultra HD video and Blu-ray player, custom system sounds, and a vertical stand High Dynamic Range support for video and games Full game download of Gears of War 4: Ultimate Edition for both Xbox One and Windows 10 (featuring cross-play support in all co-op modes) – a $99 value Early access to the game on Oct. 7 Gears of War 4 Season Pass, featuring the exclusive Vintage VIP Pack, permanent access to future multiplayer maps for private games, six additional Gear Packs including the Vintage JD Gear Pack, early previews to upcoming modes, and much more. Beyond that, fans will also receive a host of in-game content, starting with the exclusive Vintage Oscar Elite Gear Pack, which features Vintage Oscar, the Vintage Retro Lancer, Vintage Boomshot and more. We’re also throwing in the Pre-Order Vintage Del Gear Pack plus six additional Gear Packs to make sure that fans are fully stocked. The Xbox One S Gears of War 4 Limited Edition 2TB Bundle will be available for $449 in the following markets at launch: United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Ireland, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Czech Republic, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, and Turkey. Alongside this new bundle, we’re also debuting another Gears of War 4 custom controller, sold separately. The all-new Xbox Wireless Controller – Gears of War 4 JD Fenix Limited Edition is designed after JD Fenix’s armor and features metallic blue accents and textured grip for enhanced controls, as well as the COG logo – the Phoenix Omen. Both controllers come with three Gear Packs containing in-game items and an exclusive multiplayer lobby emblem – a different one for each controller. The Crimson Omen and JD Fenix Limited Edition Xbox Wireless Controllers will be available for $74.99 USD starting September 13 for individual purchase in all major markets where Gears of War 4 will be sold. The Xbox One S Gears of War 4 Limited Edition 2TB Bundle, Crimson Omen and JD Fenix Limited Edition Xbox Wireless Controllers will all be available for a limited time while supplies last.

I am not sure if I should have waited for the new one coming out at the end of the year. I do so I will make the best of it. 4K movies are a wonder to watch. Hope this helps. One person found this helpful. Loving my Xbox one S. Being someone who hasn't gamed since around the early 2000's. I was excited to purchase the Xbox to see what all the noise my friends were making over the Xbox was about. I'm amazed at the interface and all that you can do on Xbox. I could have never imagine gaming with my friends if they were not sitting next to me in the same room. However, the Xbox allows me to do this which is something I find as benefit to gaming since I can no longer get out to visit friends as I use to years ago. One person found this helpful. Great Console. So much Better in person. Best Xbox purchase I have made. I bought the Black one, I bought the Halo Edition but this Gears one is the Best one yet. Love the sounds, the look and over all beauty for this Xbox. 2TB drive is great but I have an external 2TB so I have Plenty for Space. One person found this helpful. Great look, laser etched claw marks. The best Xbox s you can buy. The box itself has amazing graphics on it and the controller has laser etched claw marks on it. The 4K is dramatically clear and the system is very quiet. The 2tb drive is the largest you can get. I even bought the matching Gears of war Elite controller which I can't find anywhere for purchase anymore. The elite controller is a must if your a serious gamer. One person found this helpful. Too many problems. My system needs the power cord removed and plugged back in in order for the controllers to reconnect. My 360 worked way better. I gave it 2 starts because I like the games but this will be my last Microsoft product. Ive had to reset the whole system in order to get my separate hard to work 2 times now as well. One person found this helpful. This product is a waste of time. Hey Microsoft, my Xbox one controller is NOT WORKING! as soon as I got it, I am trying to use the controller but it won't work! I am about to switch to PS4 this really sucks. I got this around Christmas and its amazing, I love the features it has such as the music it makes when you turn your system on and off and the noise it makes when you insert or take your game out, the system itself has a major ton of storage space which is great when it comes to adding on expatiation packs and other games. Husband loved it. I bought this for my husband for an early anniversary gift, he was always complaining his original Xbox one didn't have enough storage. Hes very very happy with this one. all I expected and more. I need more memory. Love the color! I purchased my new GOW4 SE 500GB and I am very happy with it. love the new features and wire set up.

Xbox one s gears of war edition

The single player campaign is a bit short This game is exactly what it sets out to be: a remastered edition of the original Gears of War. The single player campaign is a bit short especially when you compare it with the sequels but it is quite entertaining nonetheless. The campaign truly shines when it´s played alongside a friend or a member of your family. The addition of 90 minutes of content is especially sweet if you never had the chance to play this game on a PC. I can say that The Coalition did a great job at redoing the cutscenes and in general the game looks great and runs smoothly. Now let´s check the multiplayer; this is the most most important aspect of the game. First of all, let me tell you it runs smoothly running at 60FPS. The movement is excellent and you can no longer sense the characters´ clunkiness that defined the first installment of this franchise. It is essential that you play alongside your team or you won´t last long. The only problems i could find in the multiplayer is that sometimes, the shotgun is inconsistent and that there should be more variations for multiplayer matches. Overall I can say that this game is great choice for the people who have enjoyed the previous installments of this franchise. It can be a bit tough for newcomers but in time but this shouldn´t make you skip the opportunity to play this great game. … Expand. Review | Gears of War 4 Limited Edition Xbox One S. The Gears of War 4 Limited Edition Xbox One S is an attractive custom console design in celebration of one of the biggest games of the year. Gears of War 4 is arguably Microsoft’s biggest game of the year, with the company hoping that it will kick start a brand new chapter for their second most popular first-party franchise, following the arrival of new developers The Coalition. To mark its release a brand new limited edition, 2TB version of the Xbox One S has been created, bearing the familiar Gears of War logo, a crimson red console and a matching controller. But if you’re interested in owning a 4K-ready console, then should you spend the extra cash to get your hands on one of these? The bundle includes the limited edition Xbox One S console, a controller, a vertical stand and a digital copy of Gears of War 4. Limited edition consoles are notoriously hit-and-miss when it comes to their designs. A prime example of this would be the Gears of War 3 Limited Edition Xbox 360, which was a grotesque abomination. Splattered in red and black, the console looked as though a toddler had accidentally knocked a paint bucket on top of it, somehow making the already flimsy appearance of the Xbox 360 look even more cheap in the process. Fortunately, the Gears of War 4 Limited Edition Xbox One S boasts a much more subtle design, with it still featuring relatively the same color scheme albeit with much more subdued tones. The Gears of War 3 Xbox 360 in all of its horrifically ugly glory. The “battle-weathered” red of the console is far less eye-watering that the luminous red of the Xbox 360 design, with a faded Gears logo featured on its grill. Claw marks line the left-hand side of the console, which is intended to represent Gears of War 4’s new enemies, The Swarm. The mysterious Phoenix Omen is also located on the underside of the console, meaning it is only visible if you have your console standing vertically. A stand is included in the bundle if you wish to do so. Unique to this limited edition version of the console are custom sounds that play when you turn it on and off. Unlike the Xbox One, the Xbox One S requires you to press a button in order to power it up, with two ominous, short music clips playing when you do so. In terms of its shape, the limited edition Xbox One S is exactly the same as the standard version of the console, with it being lighter and smaller than the vanilla Xbox One. Its controller is also less bulky, making it more comfortable to hold and slightly less heavy as a result. The controller has received a visual makeover, too, with it boasting a lovely, shiny red D-Pad, and the same red and black aesthetic as the console. A limited edition Gears of War 4 Elite controller is also available to purchase, though it’s the standard controller that is bundled with the GoW4 console. Though I’m of the opinion that the bar hasn’t been set overwhelmingly high for limited edition console designs (the latest custom Forza Horizon 3 is testament to this, which actually takes the shape of the front of an Audi R8), this Gears of War 4 design is one of the best I’ve seen, and certainly the best-looking Xbox One limited edition console thus far. While the Gears of War 4 Limited Edition Xbox One S is a handsome machine, there are still question marks lingering over whether or not the Xbox One S is worth investing in as a 4K-ready console. While the Xbox One S isn’t capable of native 4K gameplay it can upscale to the resolution from 1080p, though its predominant advantage is in its utilization of high-dynamic-range. To put it simply, HDR makes images appear brighter and more vivid along with increasing their contrast, making for a richer visual experience. The Xbox One S supports a specific type of HDR called HDR10, meaning that although it will still look better than the standard Xbox One on your TV if it isn’t capable of HDR10, you won’t be experiencing the console’s maximum capabilities. HDR10-capable TVs don’t necessarily support 4K, though owning a 4K TV is preferable given that the Xbox One S also boasts a UHD Blu-ray player, which makes it the most affordable 4K-ready Blu-ray player currently available. The console is also capable of streaming in 4K, meaning that if you have a subscription to services such as Netflix that are capable of doing so, you’ll be able to watch streaming video in the resolution. While the 4K Blu-ray player will make the Xbox One S an appealing purchase in and of itself, the lack of current Xbox One games that support HDR makes it a less inveigling product. At the time of this writing, only seven Xbox One games support HDR: Gears of War 4, Forza Horizon 3, Battlefield 1, NBA 2K17, Resident Evil 7, Scalebound and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided . Of these games, two aren’t set release until next year, with RE7 landing in January and Scalebound lacking a confirmed launch date. This means that there won’t be many titles to experience in HDR, even if you own the TV necessary to do so. For games released earlier in the Xbox One’s life cycle, Microsoft has confirmed that they have granted developers access to the processing power necessary for them to do so, with the company leaving it up to them to decide whether or not they wish to introduce retroactive HDR support. But when playing the games that currently support it, the visual upgrade makes an impact. Though it’s not exactly a huge leap forwards, the advantage the Xbox One S gives to its games could most accurately be compared with applying a nice filter on top of a photograph – it doesn’t change the initial image, but rather it enhances all of its best bits in order to make it look a lot easier on the eye. Colors are less washed out than they appear on the standard Xbox One, while visual effects such as lighting are much more vibrant and impressive. It might not be capable of running games in a native 4K resolution, but it makes them look good nonetheless. Should You Buy It? If you’re a sucker for limited edition consoles, then the Gears of War 4 Limited Edition Xbox One S is one of the best-looking systems you’ll find. Bundled with a digital copy of the game and selling for only $50 more than the standard 2TB edition of the console, this would therefore seem like a no-brainer for Gears of War fans who were already in the market for both an Xbox One S and the game. For those still on the fence about purchasing an Xbox One S in general, then two factors need to be taken into account; firstly, whether or not you have a TV capable of a 4K resolution and HDR10, and secondly if you’re more interested in waiting a year to plump down the cash for the Xbox One Scorpio, which Microsoft is billing as the world’s first truly 4K-ready console. If you don’t own a 4K/HDR10 TV, then it’s unlikely that the Xbox One S will do anything for you. Though it may make some of your games look slightly better, you won’t be taking advantage of the console’s capabilities in any meaningful capacity, and as such it likely won’t be worth its asking price. However, if you do then it’s a worthy upgrade for the native 4K Blu-ray player and video streaming alone, with its HDR gaming a nice extra bonus that is sure to have a more robust line-up of titles that support it in the coming months. If you fall into the latter camp, then it may be worth holding off until the Xbox One Scorpio if you’ve got your heart set on 4K console gaming. Though details are very light on the ground, the Xbox One S doesn’t offer a true 4K experience and, while it’s very reasonably priced, could therefore prove to be quite off-putting for some. Personally, I’m a big fan of the design of the Gears of War 4 Xbox One S, and its function as both an inexpensive UHD Blu-ray player and a HDR gaming system makes it a very attractive purchase. If you have the TV necessary to make the most of it and are partial to a bit of Gears of War , then you should strongly consider purchasing this limited edition console.

The Ultimate Edition is in development at UK studio Splash Damage, in collaboration with Black Tusk The Coalition.
