Sixteen years after the original Gears of War hit shelves, humanity’s last stand has reached a new frontier: The iconic video game is heading to streaming, with a live-action film adaptation and animated television series both in the works. Get ready for war. 

Gears of War follows the Delta Squad, a ragtag crew of infantry members locked in mortal combat with the Locust Horde, a monstrous race of genetically altered humans from the underground. Led by disgraced sergeant Marcus Fenix, the crew faces off against their enemies on the increasingly hostile planet of Sera.

The upcoming film and series will be produced in partnership with The Coalition, the developer behind the Gears of War games. Gears of War joins a formidable slate of upcoming video game adaptations on Netflix, including Assassin’s Creed, Sonic Prime, BioShock and more. And that’s not even mentioning the many original video games the service offers.

Gears of War is coming soon to Netflix. Get your coalition ready.
