Community-driven tuning and technical improvements roll out in Reloaded’s latest patch
The Coalition has rolled out a new patch for Gears of War: Reloaded, addressing weapon balance, stability, and technical improvements based on community feedback.
Gnasher Weapon Tuning

- Fixed several rare crashes and bugs across all platforms.
- General stability updates to ensure smoother gameplay.
Performance & Visuals
- Ultrawide 21:9 support added in benchmark mode.
- Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) now supported in campaign mode on Xbox Series X|S.
