Tales From The Borderlands Is Getting A Sequel Later This Year

In a surprising announcement from Gearbox, a Tales From The Borderlands sequel has officially been announced, and it’s coming soon.

Announcing the news at PAX East during the Gearbox Main Theater Show, the Tales From The Borderlands sequel is set to release this year. Speaking on Twitter, the official Gearbox account wrote “New adventure, new characters, new tales. An all new Tales from the Borderlands is coming in 2022 from Gearbox and 2K.” You can also watch the full announcement and everything shown off at the show in the video below. 

Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford was the one that announced the new game. And he explained that Gearbox has been working on it for years now, with more details coming this summer.

what about telltale games?

However, a big thing to note is that it is in fact Gearbox Software that will be developing it. As the first game was developed by Telltale Games, best known now for its adaptation of The Walking Dead. Telltale shut down in 2018, then revived a year later, although not with the same staff.

The Telltale Games Twitter account congratulated Gearbox on the announcement of the sequel. But later clarified that has nothing to do with the project, and that the team is “obviously fans of the series.”

It’s also important to note that this sequel might have nothing to do with the first game, given the mention of a “new adventure” and “new characters.” So don’t get your hopes up too much if you’re expecting a direct sequel.
