Sooner or later, rumours will be flying around....and one day it might even be revealed.
Until then, predict how much you think MS bought it for.
"The Gears franchise includes four games and has been an Xbox exclusive since it’s debut in 2006. Spencer said 22 million units of the first-person shooters have been sold, earning Epic over a billion dollars in revenue to this point."
A billion in revenue only on xbox and the first one on PC. If this went multiplatform imagine how much Epic would have made.
The development costs were not that high either for Epic, so they would have profited a lot from this.

I think they must have paid atleast $500m for it and even if they dont profit from this, they still need it as a selling point for the XB1.
Edit:
According to Pachter, its $100m or less. Does he think Epic are stupid?
