Xbox fans were in for a treat during tonight’s episode of Fear the Walking Dead, because along with the episode there came a brand new trailer for Gears of War 4. The trailer showcases JD, the son of Marcus Fenix, running away from something while the trailer flashes back to when he was young boy. Check out the trailer below, and get ready to play the beta starting April 18th if you’ve played Gears of War Ultimate for Xbox One or Windows 10. If you didn’t pick up the ultimate edition then fear not, as the open beta begins April 25th.

As expected, Microsoft announced the next title in the Gears of War franchise.

Two things stuck out immediately: First, we are treated to two new characters previously unseen in previous games. Second, the title of the game is Gears 4, meaning that this iteration will probably be taking place after the events of Gears of War 3. This is a welcomed assumption as I’m sure only a few of you would like to revisit something akin to Gears of War: Judgement.

Check out the gameplay preview below:

Gears 4 is set to release Holiday 2016.
