Gearbox Is Reviving Tales From The Borderlands And It Returns This Summer

It’s no surprise that Gearbox is far from done with the Borderlands franchise following the release of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands and with the forthcoming Borderlands movie in post-production. Today, the company revealed that a beloved Borderlands spinoff will be returning with Tales from the Borderlands.

In a tweet this afternoon from the Borderlands official Twitter account, it was revealed that Tales from the Borderlands would be receiving a second season, and Gearbox only lists it and 2K Games as being attached to the project. According to the tweet, there are “more stories to discover in Borderlands Universe.” The @GearboxOfficail/@2K will launch a brand-new Tales from the Borderlands experience in 2022. We will be making an announcement later this summer. A piece of artwork featuring the Borderlands logo and three characters was included in the message. The background features a large moon.

The previous developer for season one of Tales of the Borderlands, Telltale Games, isn’t mentioned in the announcement, which makes sense as that company has taken more of a publishing role since it was shuttered and resurrected over the past few years. It is not known if the new Tales from the Borderlands version will carry on the story of the first season’s characters or move to another part of the universe. 

Season one of Tales of the Borderlands is an adventure game following the exploits of former Hyperion employee Rhys and con artist Fiona in the rough yet humorous world of Pandora.
