Playing the campaign in local online-coop with my wife (like all Gears of War games before) on our Series X's, having a blast so far (Act 2, chapter 4).
Movement feels better than ever (a lot more maneuverable but still proper heft to the character) and all the weapons are a lot of fun, old and new. Great setting and beautiful graphics. Overall I would still say it is "just" more Gears in the 2026 version, but that is all I wanted from it, so no complaints here.
On the flipside I am also still experiencing quite some good old Gears jank (enemies getting stuck in mid air or sprinting endlessly into a wall for no reason; sound and controller feedback from the gun turret continuing after I have exited it; my character not going into cover even though I know I pressed the damn button etc.), seems they never get rid of that.
