Tactics, and maybe Flight Simulator (if available) plus everything else thats on GamePass, coupled with all them delicious horsepowers is almost enough for me to blindly pre-order Sep 22. My lone hesitancy is that developers will not work up a 60 fps patch on legacy titles. Stuff like Recore, Ryse, Gears UE Campaign, Dead Rising 3 and 4. Fallout 4, and 76, GTA 5, Assassins creed, and so on and so forth. The Series X (along with the S as well) should run all these, and pretty much every other big 30fps open world game of the last generation at 60hz without breaking a sweat. But the question is - will they do it?

Somehow works better actually
Nextbox, nice pun
Any chance this game comes out on disc for the Xbox? I still mostly buy physical games
It’s unlikely this late in the game, but still hoping for a sweet collector’s edition!
Looking on the Store, if you pre-order the game or play the game on GamePass before 4 December 2020, you unlock the Thrashball Cole character pack.

I’m pretty certain you’ll be able to buy it in disc format.

Its cross play and cross save between MS store on PC and Console, so I don’t think it will have an extra list.
It will likely get more achievements with the new content
There’s still a remote possibility they do a separate list. Like an original (PC only) and rerelease. Might explain why folks late to the original don’t get the Cole Train, but for the November release, you can get Cole Train by playing before sometime in December.
I still see no reason to have 2 different listings in the MS Store if there is only 1 shared list. Gears 4 & Gears 5 both have 1 listing each, play on both console & PC, with 1 shared list for each. Gears 1 U.E. has 2 listings, with 2 separate lists.
But it worries me when asking a simple yes/no question like this to TC, @mjrdecision, etc and it gets ignored. It brings back the whole “generous conversion rate” debacle of converting Scrap to Gears Coins.
All it would take is for someone at TC to answer 1 question to settle all speculation: Will the Tactics version for consoles that releases in November have a separate achievement list from the PC version that released in April?

Thought I’d be able to cheat the system and set my console time to November 11th to play early but still got hit with the “You’re too early” message.
Got me TC

Hyped. Will get this soon, have it waiting, to boot on my Series X. I just hope the day one patch isn’t enormous and it includes 60fps with some extra bells and whistles.

I had that yesterday, the game is such a little tease as well. Try and start it and you really think it is going to let you play… Then right at the death it states “you are too early”

On it now really good so far 
Some very early first impressions. Gabe Diaz sounds an awful lot like Dominic Santiago. So much so i think they are the same VA. Graphics are crisp, I just wish i could zoom in my camera closer to the action to admire the work done. Third, wouldn’t it be better to put the action select for each current unit on the two triggers - instead of fumbling with the dpad?
I’ve played for about ten minutes.
I’ve only done the first two missions as focusing on Gears 5 new campaign achievements.
With Operation 5 of Gears 5 looking lackluster, I think I’ll be playing Tactics more.
