#PAXEAST2016 Borderlands 3 Officially Confirmed

Although Randy Pitchford and the team are currently hard at work on making sure that Battleborn is successful, Gearbox Software has confirmed  that the highly anticipated sequel to Borderlands 2 is definitely on the way during a PAX East conference. Gearbox chief creative champion Mikey Neumann, who also provides the voice of beloved mechanic Scooter, will be writing it.

Neumann brainstormed a possible character that may or may not be included in the final game. Said character would be Scooter’s son, Scooper. “I did this whole Scooter thing, then I pitch-shifted it up like seven semitones so it sounds like a chipmunk and it was the funniest thing I’d ever heard,” Neumann said.

In the meantime fans are adviced to keep an eye out for Borderlands 3 specific Easter Eggs that will be featured prominently in Battleborn, Gearbox’s upcoming hero shooter.
