Very cool to see but also a shit release date for Gears because of it 
This is why I don't think it was some quid pro quo arrangement, because Gears gets screwed, Lol. On Xbox it's a port of an highly popular, only a couple years old game vs a remaster of a remaster, a videogame which has released 3 times now on Xbox devices. On Steam and PlayStation it's new but the hype of Helldivers 2 releasing to Xbox players will naturally cause a bump to PC and PS users as well and take away attention from Gears.
Then to make matters worse, Halo comes to screw Gears over not even via an original release but a crossover which is going to get people on PlayStation and PC diving in to experience, Lmao. Hard not to assume that Gears will just be completely drowned out by the Helldivers 2 excitement + Halo crossover. I would have at least moved the Halo cross-over to a couple months later.
