It will feature existing and new characters from the world of Pandora.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9sztWWoEcVQ\" height=\"338\" width=\"600\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Gearbox shares the independent spirit that Telltale was founded on, and like Telltale, they\u2019ve broken the boundaries of what to expect within a gaming genre,&#8221; said Dan Connors, co-founder and CEO of Telltale Games. &#8220;Our partnership is something that we are very excited about, because it will unite the incredibly rich world of Borderlands with Telltale\u2019s focus on story-telling driven by player choice, and characters that people truly care about.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;At the 2012 Spike TV VGAs, our studios and games \u2013 Borderlands 2 and The Walking Dead &#8211; were fortunate to do incredibly well that night winning more awards than any other games! So we met up later for a great first date, one thing lead to another and, well, we\u2019re having a baby,&#8221; said Randy Pitchford, President of Gearbox Software. &#8220;Borderlands is incredibly important to us, so it is meaningful to share that with this partnership. I have great confidence and excitement for what Telltale has in store for its all-new adventures in our universe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Developed by Gearbox Software, and published by 2K, the FPS\/RPG hybrid Borderlands franchise has sold-in more than 15 million units worldwide, won more than 55 editorial awards.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">More gaming news<\/h3>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/60865-games-of-thrones-game-from-telltale-games-hbo-announced.html\">Games of Thrones game from Telltale, HBO announced<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/60849-international-spies-infiltrate-online-games-gather-user-data.html\">Spies infiltrate online games, gather user data<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/60842-thesurvivor2299-was-a-one-man-fanfiction-project.html\">TheSurvivor2299 was a one-man fan-fiction project<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/news\/60844-tomb-raider-definitive-edition-improvements-detailed.html\">Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition improvements detailed<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Telltale Games, Gearbox Software and 2K have announced episodic series &#8220;Tales from the Borderlands&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":173,"featured_media":60869,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_enabled":true,"_sma_x_custom_text":"","_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[5683,1525,21,11840,703],"class_list":["post-60868","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-business","tag-borderlands","tag-gearbox","tag-headline","tag-tales-from-the-borderlands","tag-telltale-games"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60868","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/173"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=60868"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/60868\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/60869"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=60868"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=60868"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=60868"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
