Netflix To Adapt Gears Of Wars Into An Adult Animated Series
Netflix announced a partnership with The Coalition to adapt the Gears of War universe whereby the streamer will adapt the popular gaming franchise into an adult animated series with a potential for more stories to follow.
With over 40 million copies sold, Gears of War is one of gaming’s richest and most acclaimed sagas. A society divided and on the brink of collapse faces total extinction by the Locust, a monstrous threat from below. Delta Squad, a ragtag fireteam led by disgraced sergeant Marcus Fenix, is now charged with leading humanity’s last stand. The series has been critically acclaimed for redefining the tactical third-person and co-operative shooter genre and has one of gaming’s most passionate fanbases.
The move follows Netflix’s focus on adult animation typically inspired by gaming franchises that have seen successes with recent examples being Castlevania, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Arcane, and more on the way like Devil May Cry, Fallout, and more.
"There are also other characters that come and go (also owned by the Warner Bros. Discovery conglomerate media company)."
Huh. Is that just referring to other characters from the show itself, or is this implying that the new season is going to have cameos from other WBD IPs
