Creators of Borderlands, Gearbox Software, announced today that they will release a new first person shooter with co-op combat called Battleborn.
Set in the “distant future, the only hope for the last star in a dying universe is a new breed of warriors, who must put aside their differences to drive back an unstoppable menace.” Battleborn features a variation of playable heroes in a unique first person shooter, co-op combat styled campaign. Competitive multiplayer matches will exist as well.
Gearbox Software’s president Randy Pitchford calls the upcoming title a “hero shooter” comparing it to the award winning Borderlands’ “shooter-looter” style of game play. “As a genre-fused, hobby-grade, co-operative and competitive FPS exploding with eye-popping style and an imaginative universe, Battleborn is the most ambitious video game that Gearbox has ever created,” Pitchford said.
Battleborn will be available for PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 in 2016. You can pre-order the game now.
