For Gears of War 4, a cover of "The Sound of Silence" performed by Disturbed was used in the Tomorrow trailer.
While not quite as morose, Gears 5 continues the tradition with a new cinematic launch trailer, complete with a remix of "The Chain" by Fleetwood Mac, performed by Evanescence. You can take a look at the new trailer below:
