There are 7 Ultimate Upgrades you can earn in Gears 5. You'll be able to find one for each Support and Combat skill on Jack. Some are unlocked by completing side-objectives, while others can just be found in the environment. Most are found in the open-world areas, but one is found in a linear level.
