Last year’s Gears Pop! announcement took fans by surprise alongside the reveal for Gears Tactics which were announce prior to the upcoming fifth installment in the franchise, Gears 5. Since the mobile title’s reveal last E3, not much have been revealed on what will be coming to the title nor when players will have the opportunity to pre-order the game.

But coming to this year’s Microsoft press conference, it was revealed that the iOS & Android exclusive title is up now for pre-order.

In the Funko-inspired title, players go head-to-head in online arena battle with some of the most notorious characters in the Gears of War franchise. Collecting different character, unlocking new items, and combining different unlocks are some of the few things you will be able to do in the upcoming mobile game.

Microsoft revealed that the first animated short ‘Kitten Around with Raam’ will be the first of many little skits planned to be released leading up to the gam’s launch.

Gears Pop! will be available for free sometime later this Summer.
