Borderlands Developer Says its Next Game is “the Best Thing We’ve Ever Done”
It’s been close to five years since Borderlands 3 came out, which means questions about when the series will return with its next mainline instalment are growing increasingly louder. And while it doesn’t seem like developer Gearbox Entertainment is ready to announce anything just yet, the company’s co-founder and CEO Randy Pitchford has not only teased it, but even talked it up as Gearbox’s best work yet.
Speaking with IGN in a recent interview, when asked about his personal favourite instalment in the Borderlands series, Pitchford said that it’s actually the game that Gearbox is working on right now, and though he said it isn’t yet time for it to be formally unveiled, he did call it “the best thing we’ve ever done.”
“Look, we haven’t even announced anything of it,” Pitchford said. “Clearly, we’re working on something. And I know what we’re working on, and holy shit… It’s the greatest thing we’ve ever done. And I can’t wait, but it’s not time yet. It’s not time yet. There will be a time.”
Interestingly, in November last year, we reported that both Borderlands 4 and Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands 2 – neither of which have been officially announced – were spotted on the LinkedIn profile of a former Gearbox employee. Given the widespread critical and commercial success the Borderlands series tends to enjoy with each instalment, it isn’t exactly a shock that Gearbox is working on a new mainline instalment, though it should be interesting to see when the game will be revealed, and when it will release.
