The shooter Borderlands 3 has been on the verge of being announced for months. This could happen on December 6, 2018. The Video Game Awards are a hot candidate to finally showcase the game to the public.
This is the situation: Borderlands 3 has not yet been officially announced, but there are many hints that it is in development and should be released relatively soon.
- Since September 2017, it has been clear that Gearbox has been working on a new Borderlands for years with all hands.
- In May 2018, Take-2 postponed a title that observers believe could be Borderlands 3 from no later than March 2019 to no later than March 2020.
- Actually, it was expected that Gearbox would present the title at E3 2018. However, the studio decided against it and let the date pass. The fans’ expectations beforehand were so high that the Gearbox chief even issued a concrete denial for Borderlands 3.
- Recently, rumors surfaced that Borderlands 3 is allegedly in the localization phase. This would mean that the title is already far along in development. However, these rumors were quite thin.
Borderlands 3 is the most anticipated unannounced game of all time and is more than ready to be showcased.
When could something about Borderlands 3 be revealed? The actual platform for announcements this late in the year is Sony’s PlayStation Experience. This usually takes place in December and gives games that are set to release on PS4 the opportunity for a major appearance.
However, this year, the PlayStation Experience is canceled.
Fans are therefore hoping that an announcement for Borderlands 3 will come on December 6 at the “Video Game Awards”.
Many announcements for games come on December 6
This indicates December 6 as the reveal date for Borderlands 3: The “Oscars of Video Games” seem to offer themselves as an alternative reveal platform. For one day, the eyes of the gaming industry rest on the event in Los Angeles.
Especially this year, it seems that more announcements will come here than in previous years:
- In a tweet, it states that the Video Game Awards will have the largest lineup in announcements so far.
- Additionally, the man behind the show, Geoff Keighley, told the site Venturebeat: “Many of the big publishers will reveal what they plan for the future.” The awards show will also focus on where gaming is heading in 2019.
Perhaps these announcements will finally include information about Borderlands 3.
When will we know if it really happens? The Video Game Awards will take place this year on December 6. In Germany, it will already be the night of December 6 to December 7. The event will be held between 2:30 AM and 4:30 AM. Perhaps there will be a surprise.
