"Gears of War: Judgment" takes place 14 years before the original "Gears of War" and just after the seminal event of the "Gears" universe, Emergence Day. In this story you'll fight to save the city of Halvo Bay from a terrifying new enemy in a campaign that gets back to basics and captures the true essence of "Gears" combat, and introduces a new style of gameplay that's faster paced and more action packed than ever before.
