Gearbox CEO Hints at New Borderlands Game and Movie Release

Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford has hinted at a new installment in the popular Borderlands series, generating significant excitement among fans. He recently stated, "I don't think I've done a good enough job of hiding the fact that we're working on something...And I think people that love Borderlands are going to be very excited about what we're working on." He further suggested an announcement could arrive before the year's end, adding that his team is working on "big things" and multiple projects.

While details remain scarce, Pitchford's comments have fueled speculation about a potential new Borderlands game. The last major release, Borderlands 3 (2019), was critically acclaimed for its story, humor, characters, and gameplay. The 2022 spin-off, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, further demonstrated the franchise's enduring appeal.

This news arrives alongside the highly anticipated Borderlands movie premiere on August 9, 2024. Starring Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, and Jack Black, and directed by Eli Roth, the film promises to bring the world of Pandora to the big screen, potentially expanding the franchise's reach.

The combination of a potential new game and the upcoming movie release has created a buzz within the Borderlands community. Fans eagerly await official confirmation and further details about the next chapter in this beloved franchise.
