![]() The mainstream didn’t pick up everything that was going on. All these different things didn’t help marketing when they promoted Battleborn. If they upgrade the current foundation there will be a lot to cover. How to follow up? Personally, I can see Gearbox go in multiple directions with the next installment of Battleborn. Another idea is inspired by Warframe an MMO-ish mission-based game. One pitch is an action RPG adaption which is kinda remarkable looking at the studio’s track record but the Battleborn universe is rich enough to allow it. One would scrap the story mode, while another would focus on a story mode. There have been several in-house pitches that would lead a sequel into different territories. Battleborn 2 could also take a different approach. The Devs definitely have ideas on how they could build upon the original Battleborn and bring that to the next level. The 1st Borderlands game also wasn’t perfect but if you see how Gearbox was able to level up that game. The original game is a good foundation but definitely has room for improvement. What the next Battleborn game will look like is uncertain. Essentially they could self-publish a sequel unless there is some fine print in the contract we don’t know about (there is probably a lot we don’t know about). But since the merger with the Embracer Group, Gearbox doesn’t need to go to an external publisher for funds. But I think 2K Games will have 1st dibs to see the project before GBX can pitch it to other publishers (speculation). ![]() Battleborn Sequel Since Gearbox owns the IP they are free to develop a new game in this universe. I think there is a great audience there, but this would have worked better back in the day when the other hero shooters weren’t present there. Personally, I would have loved to see a Nintendo Switch version. So if the original game would see a re-release or a remaster of some kind, it would have to be with 2K Games. However, 2K Games has the publishing rights for Battleborn (1). It would be awesome if Gearbox was able to boot up the servers again and fly solo on this one because then you and I would be able to play this awesome game again. Because after the game shut down the contract with 2K Games supposedly ended. Re-Publishing the Original Battleborn Some fans are wondering if Gearbox could relaunch the original Battleborn. While Borderlands might be the biggest game that has come out of the studio, Battleborn is actually the game a lot of developers enjoyed the most while making it. This has been mentioned on social media but I also personally talked with several developers that confirmed this. However, we do know that Gearbox Software really wants to make another Battleborn game. Currently, there haven’t been any announcements. Will Battleborn Come Back? After Gearbox Software and 2K Games shut down the servers for Battleborn, fans are asking if there is a possibility for the game to return or if there will ever be a sequel. ![]()
