Recently it was announced that Microsoft had acquired the rights to Gears of War from Epic Games and assigned Black Tusk Studios with developing the next game in the series. Clearly development is just getting started, but fans are eager for information and one such fan asked Microsoft boss Phil Spencer on Twitter - if there was an approximate year/date yet.
"Still working through plan. I can say first original GoW from BT has to reignite franchise and grow it, won't be a quick turn"
Sounds like we may have to wait until 2016.
