Gears of War: Judgment

Gears of War: Judgment takes place during a military tribunal; a hearing to find the guilt or innocence of Baird, who is accused of unauthorized use of a light missile. Baird faces the death penalty if found guilty by COG.

The story is told through a series of flashbacks, with each chapter representing the point of view of one character regarding what actually happened prior to the tribunal. Meanwhile, the courtroom comes under attack and the group must fight their way to safety.

The game is part of the Gears of War wider universe; it is the future, and humans are at war with the alien Locusts.

Gears of War: Judgment is a notably difficult game.
