Rumor – People Can Fly to Develop Gears of War Prequel Trilogy

With Gears of War 3 launching back in September, the current Gears of War story has ended.  While the adventure for Marcus and the gang is done for the time being, that doesn’t mean that the Gears of War universe doesn’t have a ton left to tell us.

In the latest issue of the Official Xbox Magazine, it’s reported that People Can Fly will be the studio set to develop a Gears of War prequel trilogy.  People Can Fly have most recently put together Bulletstorm, and also worked on the original Gears of War that launched on the PC.  People Can Fly is an Epic Games owned studio, and it makes perfect sense for Epic to hand the reigns over for the time being and focus on a few other large projects.

It’s definitely interesting, and fans are always ready for more Gears of War.  What do you think about People Can Fly possibly making a Gears of War prequel trilogy?  Would you rather see Epic develop the title or are you welcoming new developers to the title?  Be sure to let us know what you think by leaving us a comment below, or sound off in our forums!
