Gears of War: E-Day is all set to bring a bit of lore and a lot of action to The Coalition’s popular franchise on Xbox and PC. While many players are eager to see where Kait Diaz’s adventures take her in a sequel to 2019’s Gears 5, the upcoming title looks back at the origins of the Locust Horde and its influence on Sera in the prequel.

Considering that Diaz is on a mission to find more information on the Locust Horde and the Swarm even as she searches for her mother Reyna, E-Day’s choice to focus on past events can make a lot of sense from a narrative standpoint.

Gears of War: E-Day is sure to bring great additions to the franchise’s established narrative.

While many fans of the Gears of War franchise are excited to take a peek at the murky origins of the Locust Horde in the wake of a poor response to the introduction of the Swarm in recent games, some players are taking things a step further with suggestions for a multiplayer mode that could prove quite unique despite how gruesome the activity sounds.

Taking to Reddit to appeal to The Coalition, one fan details how the new mode would work and has gone as far as to think about what kind of rewards could be offered if a player’s team were to win at it. While it remains to be seen if The Coalition would take these suggestions into account while it works on Gears of War: E-Day, it would certainly want to pay attention to the idea.

While The Coalition may not have responded to the idea, other players were quick to wonder what prompted the idea and give their own opinions on its inclusion in the upcoming title.

Another player felt the idea would fit well if it was a seasonally-themed activity and perhaps even belonged in another popular multiplayer title.

Another player was a bit more critical of the suggestion, questioning the need to include flesh and its relevancy to the game’s overall conflict between Sera’s human population and the Locust Horde.

While time will tell if The Coalition does include a multiplayer option that incorporates these ideas, it is certain that Gears of War: E-Day will bring a lot of thrills in its campaign with the Locust Horde returning to the action and the upcoming examination of its origins serving to give players more insight into its bloodthirsty pursuit to end all human life on Sera.
