It&rsquo;s a superb looking game on all versions of the Xbox One (being a remarkable achievement on the original hardware), and thanks to a handful of upgrades it&rsquo;s also able to hold its own on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vg247.com\/2020\/11\/05\/xbox-series-x-s-review\/\">Xbox Series X<\/a>. Pretty impressive for a game designed around a console released in 2013. The new Gears 5&nbsp;<strong>Hivebusters DLC<\/strong>, which is free with Game Pass Ultimate and offers a new mini-campaign, looks incredible.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Every image on this page is from Chapter one or two, but already I&rsquo;ve been hammering the screenshot button on the new Xbox controller. So far the gameplay is what I expected, with some squad member abilities thrown in to spice things up, but the vibrancy, detail, and smoothness of the visuals really stand out &ndash; and that&rsquo;s having played most of the next-gen consoles&rsquo; big-hitters to date.<\/p>\n<p>If you&rsquo;re after something to showcase what your new Xbox can do (I&rsquo;ve not tested the Series S version, but I expect it&rsquo;s also great given how the base game performs), I highly recommend Hivebusters. I&rsquo;m not sure I&rsquo;d pay the full price of $19.99, but as part of Game Pass Ultimate this is a lovely addition.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.vg247.com\/current\/\/2020\/12\/Gears-5-Hivebusters-DLC-graphics-06.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-776568\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/microsoft-just-low-key-dropped-the-best-looking-game-on-xbox-series-x-gears-5-hivebusters-dlc.jpg\" alt=\"Gears 5 Hivebusters graphics showcase screenshot\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s also made me wonder what the Gears studio, The Coalition, will be capable of when it finally leaves the last-gen consoles behind and presumably moves forward on the more advanced Unreal 5 engine. That might be a little way off, but for now this is a rather glorious-looking morsel.<\/p>\n<p>Check out the gallery of images below to see the early part of the DLC in action. I&rsquo;m not the best photographer, but even with my hands on the camera the game looks great.<\/p>\n<p> <a
