Head back into the Borderlands with the official announcement for the New Tales From The Borderlands out of Gamescom
Another of the worst kept secrets out of Gamescom is here with the official announcement for the New Tales From The Borderlands. The follow-up to the amazing title that Telltale did a long while ago, but with Gearbox Software behind the wheel to bring it to us. It will be interesting to see if they are able to bring us the same kind of gameplay experience we had in Tales From The Borderlands, but at least we all know it will be hardcore in on the lore and humor of it all. I am sure 2K would not let them go forth if it was not going to be something solid. Thankfully, we will all find out here soon with the game hitting the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Switch, and PC on October 21st.
It is interesting to see here with the cinematic trailer we have for New Tales From The Borderlands that the gameplay could be mixed up more than expected. This could just be how it was edited, but it does not look like we will be just walking around and clicking options along the way. Granted, that would not be as exciting of a trailer to see which is why it is all explosions and high energy along the way. I am just thankful to see teases of one of the best fight scenes getting a form of reprisal from Tales From The Borderlands here. That being the finger guns fight and now it looks like one of the three characters will be doing something with miniatures along the way. That could just be my take on it all, though. Have a look and see how the action will function out there as we move about in the story of it all. I am sure it will all work just as we all hoped it would be.

How do you think this one will hold up to the past Tales From The Borderlands or will they deviate completely from the gameplay format set down? Will this one be a bit more on the serious side as the trailer alludes to or is that all just to get the sizzle out there for now? Do you think they will ever be able to top the finger-gun fight from the original or will that be hoping for too much out of any developer at this point?
