Gears of War: Ultimate Edition Achievements Revealed
In a posting on the official Gears of War website, Jack Felling has revealed the full list of achievements that will be included in the upcoming Gears of War: Ultimate Edition. Altogether, there are a total of 56 achievements with a total available Gamerscore of 1250. Ultimate Edition if a remastering of the very first Gears of War game that was released on the Xbox 360 by Epic Games in 2006. It will feature upgraded visuals, a new lighting system, brand new textures and additional chapters that were only previously available on the Windows version of the original game. It is set to launch on the Xbox One on August 25.
Studio head Rod Ferguson has also recently revealed why his development team has only remastered the first Gears of War game and not any of its sequels. “It’s really hard work [to remaster an entire series],” studio head Rod Ferguson said. “It takes a long time.” He continued, “It took us in the end 16 to 18 months to do the first one, and to try and do three games … how many people would we need to have? It just wasn’t logistically or physically or technically possible. For us it was really about what can we do, what can we focus on.”
