Has there been any legitimate, concrete news on Borderlands 3 recently?

Huge fan of the games, remember seeing a 3D render of a scene allegedly from Borderlands 3 probably more than a year ago now, haven't heard anything since.

Is it real? Is it still being developed?

It's in development, and there's no news.

Honestly I prefer it this way. Borderlands 3 is hype as is, I don't need to over-speculate on things they might tease, only to possibly be let down.

Randy Pitchford tweeted a picture of him in mocap gear as he was "playing a Psycho Bandit in a game that may or may not be in development"

Good thing to know that they got the perfect guy for the role.

The unreal tech demo is obviously demonstrating stuff to be used in it. Other than that, just a few Randy tweets like how the game will be closer in tone to bl1 than bl2. Nothing big yet.

So it'll be like the Pre-Sequel?

Different physics in different areas, so yes.

It's pretty common for games to be developed in the dark. They don't want to start the hype machine too early and get people impatient.

problem is...i've been impatient for the last three years...

I’ve been impatient since Battleborn

No.

As of last communication, yes.

Go watch MorninAfterKill's video on the flamethrowers, he said its the only concrete news that its in development, and early in as well if they are still making weapons, so not to expect the game till sometime 2019.

The longer we wait the better and longer the game will be. The day it comes out i will take 2 weeks annual leave haha

The same thing was said about Duke Nukem Forever lmao

Further, if that was true, Half Life 3 coming out would cause people's heads to explode in RL at this point.

I thought I remember seeing in a YouTube video that gearbox bought a domain called borderworld.com Can not confirm. Take with a grain of salt all that stuff. But I think a MMORPG FPS set in borderlands universe would be cool.

CaptainColdSteele•

I would rather it was single player/ 4p co-op like the previous games. I feel like it would end up something like what happened when the elder scrolls went mmo. I loved morrowind and oblivion, and skyrim was pretty cash but eso was just terrible imo

As Shigeru myiamoto mario man said: "a delayed game has an opportunity to be good, a rushed game will be bad forever". Have patient.

I want more Handsome Jack!

Also... Butt Stallion says hello.

OperationSnowflake•

As much as I lobe Jack's character, I don't want him in bl3. It would ruin the perfect story arch he has between 2 and presequel. And bringing back from the dead would pretty much ruin that. It would be pretty cool if the vault hunters started taking care of butt stallion after Jack's death though!

V_Dawg•

I can only see jack coming back in the form of Tim, the jack double you play as in TPS

5
OperationSnowflake•

That could be really interesting if it was like a jack that was morally good and wanted to fight on the vault hunters side

2
VivaVideri•

You kill him in opportunity in bl2 to get to the bnk-4r. :x

1
V_Dawg•

That's not him. The body double you kill in BL2 is an engineer using a disguising device. Tim from TPS had surgery to look like jack

ghostspeare•

That’s a fair point.

Lovurr•

If you want more jack play the ones he's in, i'm ready for a new villain that isn't dead.

It's coming. Believe.

I like this subreddit because dicks get down voted a ton! It's good to know that most of us in this subreddit are nice people. I can't wait for BL3 as well!
