NVIDIA is giving Gears of War fans a chance to win a custom GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition graphics card inspired by Gears of War: E-Day.
With Gears of War: E-Day set to arrive on October 6, 2026, excitement around the next major entry in the franchise is already building. The upcoming game takes players back to the beginning of the Gears of War story, focusing on the events that shaped the series’ brutal and emotional universe. To celebrate the return of one of gaming’s most recognizable franchises, NVIDIA has launched a special giveaway tied to its Summer of RTX 2026 campaign.
As part of the promotion, NVIDIA is offering two custom-wrapped GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition graphics cards featuring artwork inspired by Gears of War: E-Day. The limited-edition design highlights the game’s theme of brotherhood and gives the GPU a unique collector’s look that should appeal to both PC hardware enthusiasts and longtime Gears fans.
The prize is not just a standard graphics card with a themed box. NVIDIA says the custom GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition includes a special wrap based on Gears of War: E-Day artwork, transforming the high-end GPU into a one-of-a-kind piece of gaming hardware. For fans of the franchise, it is a rare opportunity to own a graphics card that celebrates the legacy and future of Gears of War.
Entering the NVIDIA giveaway is simple. Participants need to find NVIDIA’s official giveaway posts across supported social media platforms and follow the instructions provided. The key entry requirement is to comment with the hashtag “#RTXPowersPlay” on the relevant NVIDIA thread or post.
The giveaway is open globally, meaning fans from different regions can take part. According to the giveaway details, NVIDIA will select two winners, with each receiving a Gears of War: E-Day custom-wrapped GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition graphics card. Each card is valued at $1,599.
The GeForce RTX 5080 Founders Edition is expected to be a strong match for Gears of War: E-Day, especially for players looking to experience the game with high visual quality and smooth performance.
