Gears of War Remastered Collection: What Do We Know?

Gears of War could well be getting a remastered collection on next-generation consoles, if a new rumour is to be believed.

A new report from journalist Nick Baker, of Xbox Era via Video Games Chronicle, claims that there is a “Master Chief Collection” style game being developed for the Gears franchise.
