How many Acts and Chapters are in Gears 5?

Gears 5 is available today for those subscribed to Xbox Game Pass, and in addition to a robust multiplayer offering is a campaign for up to three players that we’ve rated quite highly. This guide’s all about letting you know how many Acts and Chapters are in Gears 5‘s campaign.

Spoilers lie ahead in the form of Act and Chapter names, so be warned.

All up, it took us around 15-20 hours to complete the game’s 15 chapters, spread out into 4 Acts. Acts 1 and 4 are largely linear, while Acts 2 and 3 go into a new open-world mindset that offer up warnings at the point of no return.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
