According to industry whispers, the much-anticipated announcement for the Gears of War Collection might be just around the corner, potentially unveiled at the upcoming Xbox Showcase event in June. While the specifics on which titles will be included are still under wraps, insiders suggest that the collection may feature the first three entries in the series, providing a nostalgic journey through the saga's early chapters.
