Rumor Has It That Next Gears of War Will Have a Playable Female Character Could the Gears of War franchise finally be getting its first playable female character? …maybe. It’s the weekend, “real” news doesn’t happen.
Speaking with 1 vs. 100 LIVE host Chris Cashman during the August 1st live game, Epic Games’ Cliff Bleszinski, better known to gamers as “Cliffy B”, “The Cliffster” and “Captain Snugglepuff”* was asked if gamers could ever expect to play as a female character in a Gears of War game. Cliff’s answer, in short, was that he could not comment on “possible aspects” of a game that “may or may not” be in development.
Typical.
However he did quickly follow that comment by mentioning the female Gear that is sitting on the head of a slain Brumak (image above) for the cover of a Gears of War comic book and saying that she “may or may not” be involved in any “as-yet-unannounced” video game projects.
Now we all know there is going to be a Gears of War 3. It hasn’t been announced officially yet, but considering how incredibly popular the first two were, a third one is inevitable.
