Microsoft reveals record-breaking expectations for Gears of War by the end of 2006...
The fight between the Locust Horde and mankind is one day away from reaching European shores, leaving Microsoft today revealing its expectations for Epic Games' Xbox 360 exclusive Gears of War.
One million units of the third-person shooter are expected to be sold by the end of 2006, which if reached, would make Gears of War one of the fastest selling titles on the next-gen console.
"'Gears of War' is a title we know will deliver on all of its promise, and we expect the game to reach 1 million copies faster than any new titles for Xbox," said Chris Lewis, Regional VP Entertainment & Devices Division (E&D) EMEA. "This Christmas is an extremely important one for the entire industry, and Xbox 360 will offer the world unparalleled experiences available only on this console. We've put an enormous emphasis on bringing new and exciting titles to market, and 'Gears of War' is a key example of Microsoft's commitment to developing original and immersive titles for gamers everywhere."
"The reception that 'Gears of War' has received has been tremendous," said Cliff Bleszinski, lead designer for 'Gears of War' at Epic Games. "Designing 'Gears of War' has been a labour of love, and we've poured everything we have into the title. We expect this game to be huge, and it's exhilarating to see that people are as excited about 'Gears of War' as we are."
We'll have more news shortly...
