Gearbox CEO Hints at New Borderlands Game and Movie Premiere

Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford recently hinted at a new Borderlands game, generating significant excitement among fans. He stated in an interview that the studio is working on "something...people that love Borderlands are going to be very excited about," suggesting a potential announcement before the year's end. Pitchford emphasized the size and skill of the development team, assuring fans the project aligns with their expectations. He also mentioned multiple projects are underway at Gearbox.

This news comes alongside the highly anticipated Borderlands movie premiere on August 9th, 2024. The film, directed by Eli Roth and starring Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, and Jack Black, promises to bring the vibrant world of Pandora to the big screen.

The last major Borderlands installment, 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. Pitchford's comments have amplified anticipation for a new game, building on the momentum of the upcoming movie release.

The Borderlands movie's August 9th premiere is expected to broaden the franchise's reach and potentially set the stage for future installments. While details remain limited, the combination of the movie release and Pitchford's hints point towards an exciting future for the Borderlands franchise.
