2K Games to publish Borderlands
New sci-fi shooter from Gearbox
2K Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive, has announced that it will be publishing Gearbox Software's Borderlands.
"Borderlands represents an important evolutionary leap in game design and technology," said 2K president Christoph Hartmann. "By utilizing revolutionary new technology to create thousands of unique, randomly generated missions, weapons and situations, Borderlands will raise the bar for next gen action games."
The sci-fi themed first-person shooter, in development for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Games for Windows platforms, will feature a unique content generation system and four player co-operative play.
"Borderlands creates a universe of gameplay that goes far beyond anything anyone would expect. We're tapping into every bit of Gearbox Software's experience with the biggest science fiction video game franchises, then taking everything way past the next level," said Randy Pitchford, president of Gearbox Software.
Borderlands is scheduled for a 2008 holiday season release.
