Yesterday at PAX East, Gearbox confirmed what a lot of people had been hoping - yes there will be a Borderland 3 or at least a third Borderlands game developed. Those of you who love the series can rejoice now.
Development won't actually be started in earnest until after they're done with production on Battleborn and its DLC though, but a confirmation of it being in the planning stages is a good start to the hype train that's inevitably going to build over the months.
People confirmed involved already are the art director of Battleborn, Scott Kester (who will be fulfilling the same position for this new Borderlands game too) and Mikey Neumann will be writing it, as well as possibly providing the voice of Scooter if they pop up in this new game. He did talk about a brainstormed character called Scooper (Scooter's song) who he'd love to see included, but nothing was officially confirmed there either way.
There's no big details to chew on yet, but confirmation of a game being planned is a lot better than wondering if any small out of place thing could be hinting at it ala Half Life 3.
