Borderlands is one of Gearbox’s great franchises. While it has seemed like its era is coming to an end, Borderlands, it’s still one of the biggest AAA in the industry, and is an important IP. This news about its future carries a lot of weight.
According to Randy Pitchford, director of Gearbox, the next title in the Borderlands saga will be released very soon. As he commented in an interview with Gamesradar, “I haven’t been perfect at hiding the fact that we are working on many things, and that we are working on big things.”
Although it has not been confirmed that this great thing is a new Borderlands, the dates coincide. The latest main installment of the franchise, Borderlands 3, was released in 2019. Selling 19 million copies, it was not as successful as its predecessor, Borderlands 2 (which sold 28 million copies), but that’s an absolutely spectacular sales figure for any video game. It ensured the future of the franchise in the short- and medium-term.
The spin-off, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, released in 2022. Although this game passed without much fanfare, according to Pitchford, it performed better than expected. He noted that the game’s impact has been greater than that of the first Borderlands, so it’s something they can build upon. This suggests that we can expect more from Tina’s unique world.
Although there is nothing official yet, it is likely that we won’t have to wait long to know more details. Stating that they don’t want to keep the audience waiting, Pitchford affirmed that this launch will happen before the end of the year, if not sooner. So, Borderlands fans, stay tuned! It sounds like Randy Pitchford will have news for you before the year ends, if not sooner!
