Book Review: The Art of Gears 5

Highlight of this book is easily the environment art. The sci-fi landscapes are gorgeous and just makes you feel like exploring them. The artworks are so detailed, high quality. The textures are just amazing. Most artworks are printed huge and really invites you to slow down and admire the details or wonder how the artists created them.

Out of the 224 pages in this large hardcover artbook, 165 pages on environment art. Interior, exteriors, populated and desolated. There are 30 pages for character designs and those look terrific too. Props, weapons and vehicles only took up 10 pages. The last few pages has in-world artworks, medals, game UI, logo design and the posters. Captions are provided for most artworks and they provide some insight to the designs.

This is an excellent companion for the game. Highly recommended.
