He mentioned he has started to work on the character but that nothing is official yet as to what can be included in the final version of the newest, much-awaited "Borderlands" game. Some changes need to be done on the voice of the character and so it is possible he may not be part of the new release. Neumann though remains optimistic that the character will be joining, just not confirmed yet for the upcoming version.
The game studio let it be known at the time of announcement that Easter eggs for "Borderlands three" will abound in the "Battleborn" game, its DLC featuring those.
Pitchford shared, "There's already a lot of Borderlands Easter eggs in Battleborn. But they're all from previous Borderlands games. So what if we put Easter eggs for future stuff in the DLC?"
Varnell confirmed that was possible. And the game creator will be sticking with that.
The announcement of the making of the game did not include a release date or the platforms on which the games could be played. But the announcement was confirmation to several waiting fans that the game will indeed be a reality.
