Gearbox CEO Hints at a New Borderlands Game and the Upcoming Movie
Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford recently hinted at a new installment in the popular Borderlands series, generating significant excitement among fans. He teased the project in an interview, stating that he hasn't done a good job hiding their work on "something... people that love Borderlands are going to be very excited about." He even suggested an announcement could arrive before the year's end. Pitchford highlighted the size and skill of the development team, emphasizing their focus on delivering what fans want.

While details are scarce, the CEO's comments confirm multiple projects are underway at Gearbox.

The anticipation for a new Borderlands game is high, especially given the success of Borderlands 3 (2019) and Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands (2022). These titles showcased the franchise's enduring appeal with their engaging narratives, humor, diverse characters, and addictive gameplay.

This news arrives perfectly timed with the upcoming Borderlands movie premiere on August 9th, 2024. The film, boasting a star-studded cast including Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, and Jack Black, and directed by Eli Roth, promises to bring the world of Pandora to the big screen, potentially expanding the franchise's reach and lore.

The combination of a potential new game and the movie release makes this an exciting time for Borderlands fans.
