The Update Is a Minor One
The Coalition has released a new update for Gears of War: Reloaded.
The update is a minor one, but it does add Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) support for the Xbox Series X/S consoles for the campaign mode.
You can see the full list of changes below:
Gnasher weapon tuning Based on community feedback, we’ve tuned the Gnasher:
- Reduced power at mid-range: Damage modifications: medium-range damage reduced by 15% – does not affect close range damage.
- Bullet spread not as tight when aiming down sights: The Shotgun Pellet Spread when aiming down sights is now less tight when targeting compared to the launch version, but it is still tighter than the beta.
Crash & Stability Improvements Several rare crashes and bugs have been fixed across all platforms, making your experience smoother.
Performance & Visuals Ultrawide 21:9 monitors supported in benchmark mode Support for Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) on Xbox Series X|S in campaign mode.
Gears of War: Reloaded launched at the end of August 2025, and it brought the one flagship Xbox exclusive series to PlayStation for the first time.
It is also available to play on the cloud via GeForce NOW and Xbox Cloud Gaming. The game is also verified for the Steam Deck. If you have yet to check out the game, then why not start with the official Cloud Dosage review?
