<p>Leaked footage reveals that Epic was working on a real time strategy game for Kinect set in the Gears of War universe. Called Gears of War: Tactics, players were able to issue orders to their squad using only their finger. It was hoped that a Gears title would convince the hardcore to buy a Kinect.</p>
<p>Unfortunately this was not to be, Tactics was developed until the alpha stage but then quietly cancelled. It is unclear if the game was related in anyway to<a href="https://bagogames.com/gears-war-exile-cancelled/"> Gears of War: Exile</a>, another leaked project that used the Kinect. You can check out the two minute video for Tactics over at <a href="http://www.vgleaks.com/gears-of-war-tactics-gameplay">VGleaks</a>.</p>
<p>The Gears of War franchise has left Epic and found a new home with Black Tusk Studios, but don&#8217;t expect another instalment any time soon.</p>
