Gears of War novels Aspho Fields and Jacinto’s Remnant author Karen Traviss has been tapped as the writer for Gears of War 3, it’s been revealed.
“She has a very, very good way of getting inside these characters’ heads from a novelist’s kind of standpoint,” Epic Games’ design director Cliff Bleszinski said of the sci-fi and fantasy author as he revealed the news in a recent interview. “She really understands who they are, and she’s going to really be doing a good job of breathing life into these characters as well as the new ones.”
As phrased by Microsoft as the game was announced a few days ago, Gears 3 is looking to be the “most dramatic chapter” in the trilogy and present players “a harrowing tale of hope, survival, and brotherhood”.
