Having just beat the game, this trailer means a lot more to me. My full review of the game coming soon.
I think you’ll appreciate this trailer even if you’re not a gamer, a fan of Gears, or know what it’s about.
30 second synopsis: “aliens” called Locust emerge from underground, decimating the world of Sera’s population. Humans fight back, finding the Locust stronghold beneath one of their major coastal cities. Heroes fight to collapse the structure below this city, flooding the Locust stronghold.

The parents, friends, classmates and coworkers you rub shoulders with… they need reached, told about the saving grace of Christ.
Missions isn’t something you do. It’s something you live.

If you’re drinking coffee, even better. Pay no attention to the name of the song. Sit back, turn up the volume, turn down the lights, close your eyes even.
Soak it in.
