So you’re wondering “How many acts in Gears 5?” For one reason or another, you’re doing some research ahead of playing the game for yourself. Perhaps it’s to see if it’s worth picking up for the campaign alone, or maybe you’re an Achievement hunter looking up just how many acts and chapters you’ll need to get through on the hardest difficulty. It’s also possible that you’re already playing the game and just want to know when the campaign draws to a close. Here’s the Gears 5 mission list with no spoilers.
Number of acts in Gears 5
There are four acts in Gears 5. However, those acts have varying lengths, with some of them taking place in more open levels that take time to fully explore. Act 2 is the longest of the acts, lasting a good number of hours if you also complete the side missions.
