The rest of the Gears 5 update consists of bug fixes such as an improved Tour of Duty time remaining display, an added Aim Toggle Accessibility option, various AI issues, and more.

The game’s Supply Drops have received new content to randomly earn by playing the game with the Classic Del skin from Gears of War 4, an Xbox mark, a Relaxed Retro Lancer skin, and more.
