Guardians of the Galaxy star and professional WWE wrestler Dave Bastista was supposed to have been inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame this week, but due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Hall of Fame ceremony has been delayed indefinitely. In honor of the award Batista should have received, The Coalition is adding the wrestler’s famous Batista Bomb finisher to Gears 5 in a free DLC update.
I walk for miles inside this pit of danger
I’ve swallowed down a thousand years of anger
The weight of the world is falling on my shoulders
A place where no one follows me, I walk alone
Get the Batista Bomb execution free in #Gears5 now until Apr 20!https://t.co/T048eWbhZF— Gears of War (@GearsofWar) April 2, 2020
Gears 5 already has a variety of execution animations in the multiplayer mode, but nothing comes close to the savageness of the Batista Bomb. While in real life Batista used this move to knock down his opponents, the game takes it to a whole other level with the enemies exploding on impact.
The Batista Bomb execution is free to download until April 20 on PC and Xbox One. Combined with the free “Batista” character skin for Marcus Felix, you can get the ultimate Gears 5 Dave Batista experience.
Gears 5 is currently on sale at 50% on Steam as part of the Xbox Game Studio publisher sale.
