Gears of War Free game codes

The codes for the free Gears of War games that are part of the Gears of War Ultimate promotion have not been handed out yet. They will be given out from the 1st December in waves, so if you don't get your codes on that day, don't panic.

According to the Gears of War 4 official site-

For a limited time, all purchases of Gears of War 4 include the entire Gears of War Xbox 360 library for free, all playable on Xbox One thanks to Backwards Compatibility! The Gears of War Xbox 360 collection provides you with four incredible games, from
the epic saga of the original Gears of War trilogy to the standalone story of Gears of War: Judgment.

Physical copies of the game will come with codes for each of the four titles to download via Xbox Live. For those who purchase digitally, your codes will be sent via Xbox Live message – we’ll be sharing more information on digital distribution closer to
launch.

Hey Don -

The Gears of War legacy collection is being sent out to customers via Xbox Live message within one month of redeeming your Gears of War 4 code. Source: >>Gears
of War 4<< store page.

If you still don't have your codes a month after redeeming your Gears of War 4 game, feel free to post a new thread and we'll take a look then.

Thanks for understanding!

Hey there ListPrivate,

The website you're linking to is actually for the Gears of War: Ultimate Edition promotion and not the actual promotion for Gears of War 4. You can find more info on that promotion

HERE. To clarify, only codes for the Backward Compatible titles are sent. There is no promotion that offers the Remastered Ultimate Edition currently.

Q: I heard that if I buy and play Gears of War 4 that I can get Gears of War 1, Gears of War 2, Gears of War 3 and Gears of War: Judgement for free, is this true?

A: Yes! Here's how that will work.

Any customer who purchases Gears of War 4 digitally between April 25th and December 31st 2016 will receive codes for Gears of War, Gears of War 2, Gears of War 3 and Gears of War: Judgement.

These codes will be delivered automatically around 7-10 days after the purchase has been made, starting on October 3rd 2016 for anyone who pre-ordered the game, and continuing until January 9th 2017.

You must buy and play the game by December 31, 2016 to be eligible for this promotion.

These games can only be played on Xbox 360 or Xbox One via Backward Compatibility – they cannot be played on Windows 10.

Customers in Germany will not receive Gears of War 2 as this title has not been released in that region.

Customers who purchase the physical game at retail will find codes for these games inside the box while supplies last.

Note: Gears of War 2 is not available in Germany and thus not included in this promotion for that region.

***Note that you should get the code within 7-10 days after redeeming your code and playing the game while connected to Xbox Live, in the form of an Xbox Live Message.
