Borderlands 3 Reveal Teased for PAX East

by Sam Aberdeen on 01 March, 2019

Borderlands 3 remains one of gaming's greatest mysteries. The beloved looter-shooter series has gained a massive cult following since the release of the first game, and its sequel, which solidified its place in the hall of gaming greats. Developer Gearbox has now possibly teased a reveal for Borderlands 3, and it might happen sooner than we think.

Gearbox will be attending PAX East this year, which kicks off on March 28th. The studio will be having their own Gearbox Panel, but has teased something more than just mandatory updates and news. The official description for the Gearbox Panel is as follows:

"This is your opportunity to get a behind-the-scenes look at Gearbox Software and Gearbox Publishing, along with the latest news and updates from the makers of Borderlands, Battleborn, Brothers in Arms, and more! We will have never-before-seen reveals, exclusives, and surprises, so don't miss out!"

The internet ignited with excitement at the mention of "never-before-seen" reveals, which could indicate that Gearbox plans on revealing the long-awaited Borderlands 3 this year. After all, many websites have already reported on the fact that the game might actually be well in development over at the studio, so it's only a matter of time before we get an official announcement. PAX East seems like the ideal place to finally pull the curtain back on Borderlands 3, though we recommend toning down your expectations as there's a good possibility that they won't be showcasing anything related to the series.

If PAX East doesn't prove fruitful, then it's a safe bet that Borderlands 3 might take the stage at E3 2019. With Sony dropping out of this year's show, Microsoft's stage could play host to the reveal. However, we must stress again that none of this is set in stone, but we're fairly confident that we'll be hearing something from Gearbox at PAX East regarding a new Borderlands game - perhaps even a developer update.

Borderlands 3 is speculated to be in development.

@Lurch As much as I hate looter-shooters in general, the Borderlands games (especially 2) have come the closest to being competent. Plus they're just really fun.

Here's hoping Gearbox - especially after the underwhelming response Battleborn got - can still demonstrate to other devs how to make a looter-shooter that isn't an insufferable grind, devoid of personality and novelty..
