📺 Borderlands 4 Teased: What We Know So Far

The Gearbox CEO has officially teased the development of Borderlands 4. This announcement comes as no surprise, especially given the recent strategic move where Take-Two acquired Gearbox from The Embracer Group in March 2024. This acquisition was seen as a significant step toward fueling the development of future titles, including the highly anticipated Borderlands 4. The CEO also addressed the disappointing reception of the Borderlands movie, reflecting on its impact and the lessons learned for future projects.


Although specific details about Borderlands 4 remain under wraps, the anticipation is palpable. As the franchise is known for its vibrant characters, chaotic combat, and unique storytelling, the upcoming game is expected to push these elements even further. With Gearbox's history of delivering top-notch looter shooters, Borderlands 4 is already on many gamers' radars. For those eager to catch a glimpse of what the franchise offers, the official cinematic launch trailer of Borderlands 3 provides a great taste of the series' style and flair.

📺 DOOM: The Dark Ages - QuakeCon 2024 Reveals Stunning New Details

At QuakeCon 2024, fans were treated to an exciting update on DOOM: The Dark Ages, the latest entry in the legendary DOOM franchise. This installment promises to be a game-changer, with the developers revealing that the game world will be significantly larger than anything seen in previous titles. The expansion of the game world hints at a more immersive experience, offering players more exploration, secrets to uncover, and perhaps even more enemies to decimate.


In addition to the larger world, the developers also discussed the variety of weaponry that players will have at their disposal. While DOOM has always been known for its fast-paced combat and devastating arsenal, The Dark Ages seems poised to elevate this to new heights. From medieval-inspired weapons to futuristic firepower, players will have plenty of ways to tear through the demonic hordes.


Set to release in 2025 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, DOOM: The Dark Ages is already shaping up to be a must-play for fans of the series. For those who can't wait, the official trailer for DOOM: The Dark Ages offers a tantalizing glimpse of what's to come. Whether you're a long-time DOOM fan or new to the series, this game is one to watch.

📺 The Witcher 4 Lead Character Update: Geralt's Future Revealed

The voice actor for Geralt in The Witcher 3 confirmed that while he will return in The Witcher 4, he will not be the game's lead character. This revelation has sparked intense speculation among fans about who the new protagonist might be. Many, including myself, hope that Ciri will take center stage in the upcoming game. Given her significant role in The Witcher 3, where she became a formidable and powerful character, Ciri seems like a natural choice to lead the next chapter of the series.


The Witcher 4 is one of the most anticipated RPGs, and with the shift away from Geralt as the main character, the game could explore new narratives and gameplay mechanics. Ciri, with her unique abilities and rich backstory, offers a fresh perspective that could breathe new life into the series. For those interested in the ongoing debate, PC Games N's article makes a compelling case for why Ciri should be the lead in The Witcher 4.


As we wait for more details, including a release date and further character reveals, fans can revisit the magic of The Witcher 3 through the Geralt & Ciri trailer.
