Of course Gearbox Software are best known for their Borderlands games. Borderlands 2, having come out last year, has sold exceptionally well and has quickly become a fan favorite amongst the gaming community. A PS Vita version was confirmed at Gamescom as well, but a release date has yet to be confirmed.
One of the two games teased by Gearbox could very well be a Brothers in Arms title. The latest entry in the series was revealed at E3 several years ago but has dwindled ever since. A Borderlands sequel could be in the works as well but it seems Gearbox’s intention is to create new original experiences.
