Gears of War: E-Day contains many little secrets and Easter eggs that have been included in the game’s campaign. One of those is a very humorous reference to Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 and its well-known quote “For Those Who Come After.” The game does not take the reference seriously but makes a funny joke out of it. Here’s where you can find the For Those Who Come After Easter egg and what it references.
How to Find the For Those Who Come After Easter Egg in Gears of War: E-Day
There’s an interesting Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 easter egg that can be found in Gears of War: E-Day. The game features an allusion to the well-known “For those who come after” concept from Expedition 33; however, keeping in line with the Gears of War tradition, the allusion is made into a toilet paper joke. This easter egg was discovered recently by players and is related to the popular Expedition 33 meme about Gustave.
Where to Find the Easter Egg
The Easter egg may be located in the bathroom during the campaign. One has to locate a toilet near which there will be a roll of toilet paper. Such a combination is an imitation of the Expedition 33 meme, in which Gustave replaces the toilet paper roll.
After one locates the toilet, one only needs to go up to it and look at the holder. There is no need to solve a certain task or shoot in order to get the Easter egg. This is merely a hidden element of the level.
The joke is an imitation of the “For Those Who Come After” phrase used in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. The original game uses such a phrase in a much more serious way, while Gears of War: E-Day gives it a much sillier treatment.
What the Easter Egg References
The source can be found in one of those memorable Expedition 33 memes where Gustave installs a new roll of toilet paper. Players will easily get the joke once the Gears of War: E-Day Easter egg is revealed. Therefore, should you come across a bathroom that has toilet paper in an odd location, be sure to have a second look. It’s one of the game’s more surprising crossovers.
