Attention Gears fans!

We’re rolling out our latest update for Gears Tactics! And as an added bonus, we’ve added two new armor patterns - Heroes and the Monsters – for you to unlock and keep your squad looking fresh.

Our latest Title Update is out at July 15 at 8:00 pm PT. The full patch notes can be found below:

Gameplay & Tuning

Added the ability to select units with 0 AP. By default this is on for click selection and tabbing through units. Tab selection of 0 AP units can be disabled in the gameplay settings using the “Cycle Zero AP” setting.
The XP curve after level 7 has been flattened so each level requires the same amount of XP instead of exponentially more XP.
Every Veteran mission and Veteran side mission will now give at least one legendary item.
Skill resets are now free in Veteran mode and no longer require a reset token.
Fixed Act 1 Chapter 6 not correctly transitioning to the boss objective.



Stability

Fixed memory leaks.
Fixed rare crashes saving and loading the game.
Fixed rare crash while units are pathfinding.
Fixed rare crash when resolution changes.
Fixed a gameplay hang when a Ticker explodes on top of an e-hole while the e-hole is opening.
Fixed a few rare crashes in gameplay.
Fixed a few rare crashes when transitioning into and out of gameplay.
Fixed crash while using the narrator.
Improvements to graphics stability.



Misc

Two new patterns have been added and will be unlocked in existing saves that have completed the unlock requirements:
“Heroes” will unlock after the tutorial mission.
“Monsters” will unlock after Act 3 Chapter 8.
Fixed a bug that would block the mission from starting if the user continually rotated the camera.
Localization updates.



Stay tuned for more news on Tactics updates as we have them.

Until then,
