Telltale Games will be at next months SXSW film, music and interactive media festival in which they will be discussing Tales From The Borderlands. Their panel will include all of the details of the partnership between the two brands and what we can expect from the upcoming game.
The panel is set to include Gearbox president Randy Pitchford, Borderlands 2 writer Anthony Burch and Borderlands franchise director Matthew Armstrong. Telltale Games will be represented by president Kevin Bruner and designer Harrison Pink. Their panel begins on March 8 at 5:30 PM.
This is one of the games that I am the most cautiously optimistic about that is coming out this year. I absolutely love the Borderlands series, so I’m thrilled to be getting more stories from that universe. However, Telltale Games’ style of gameplay and more narrative-driven focus is something that I’m unsure will blend well with Borderlands’ action-packed style. If anyone can pull it off, it’s Telltale Games, but I’m gonna have to see a trailer before I can really wrap my head around it.
