Rod Fergusson oversaw the fourth and fifth installments in the franchise.
Fergusson was asked onIGN’s Unlocked podcastwhether he knew what happened after the cliffhanger ending of Gears 5.
“So I did write the synopsis story for Gears 6.
Now they probably threw that out and said, ‘Good luck and goodbye.’
And that’s fine.
I definitely had where I would go with 6.”
So how the narrative continues canonically in Gears 6 has been debated after such a split path was offered.
Fergusson said he’s intrigued to see how the studio resolves that in the next game.
The studio also apparently canceled two other projects and suffered layoffs.
As for Fergusson, Diablo IV early access begins today with the official launch happening June 5.
