During a series of in-person Xbox demos at the 2025 Summer Game Fest, I got the chance to play Gears of War: Reloaded on the company’s upcoming handheld: the ROG Xbox Ally X. The 7-inch screen looks gorgeous, and the game’s remaster is a stunner no matter what size screen it’s on (I also played it on some much bigger TV screens).
