Whether Microsoft did it just to troll fans on the lead-up to announcing Gears of War 5 or not, Gears POP! is coming to iOS and Android in 2019 and I have no idea how to feel about it.

During Microsoft's E3 conference last night Gears POP! was announced by means of a seriously brief trailer (42 seconds, to be precise), and after watching it I'm left with more questions than answers.

All we know so far is that this'll be a mobile game that combines Gears of War with the ever-popular collectibles, Funko Pops. It could be a shooter, but my first instinct is that it'll be some sort of free-to-play CCG or tactical battler.

What shape do you think the game'll take? Let us know in those comments down below. Don't forget to keep up with all of the latest E3 mobile news in our ultimate guide.
