Here is the golden treasure vault everyone has been waiting for; for Gearbox has just odiously fired very hot revelations regarding Borderlands 4– and it is going to be crazily mad. It is like talking about next-level crazy.
First up, the Digirunner. Not crazy science-fiction treadmill (although that would so be hi-larious), but pretty much is going to be your new bespoke ride that is going to be apparently very customizable. We’re talking Mad Max meets whatever insane tech Borderlands throws at us: wheels? maybe hover? possibly an explosion? absolutely.
Let’s start with explosions and then weapons. Because what would Borderlands have been without guns doing things guns never do? This time it isn’t just random loot that you pick; you’re actually creating and Frankenstein-ing your own death machines. Mixing and matching weapon parts so your shotgun could easily have a rocket launcher attached to it, or your pistol may shoot bees. (Okay, the bee thing may already exist, but you know what I’m getting at.)
Now, the real juicy bit-new Vault Hunters. Gearbox has not spilled the beans yet on the total list, but you never know what else might be coming, just like all other series of games. One of them might turn out to be some Left 4 Dead-style grenade with brains, while the other might call up a mini-Cthulhu. Who knows? But we are up for it.
And factions. What is a wasteland without good old infighting? Your warring factions might mean that you would have to choose sides or just betray everybody for all the loot. Classic Borderlands.
And about that, Gearbox is cooking something ridiculous, and we all just sit back and wait to see how many times we can get Claptrap to scream in terror. No date yet for release, but with leaks coming in this steady, it’s got to be sooner rather than later.
In the meantime, go back and reinstall Borderlands 3, and get your headshots going. You’re going to need ’em.
