The latest update for Borderlands 3 has arrived, bringing with it the newest event in the game.
The new event is called Gear Rush. During the event, rare-level chests are more likely to appear in Battle Royale-style Weapon Racing mode. In addition, DAHL chests found in the Stormblind complex are more likely to contain special equipment exclusive to the arms race.
There is a risk involved in all of this, however, as the update also causes the killer hurricane – Murdercane, as it is called – to close faster than before.
The event runs until February 11 at 8:59 am PT / 11:59 am ET. Visit the Borderlands website to learn more.
Borderlands developer Gearbox Software was recently acquired by Swedish company Embracer Group in a sale valued at up to $ 1.3 billion. Despite the sale, Gearbox will continue to work with 2K Games on the Borderlands series, although no new franchise titles have been announced. With the exception of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, Gearbox was the leading developer for all games in the series.
Gearbox founder Randy Pitchford recently revealed that the studio is also incubating several new game ideas that he believes can rock the video game industry like Borderlands did. We also know that Brothers in Arms is still alive, with some kind of work being done in the studio. His derivative game Brothers in Arms: Furious Four was finally canceled and certain elements were merged into Battleborn – which went offline forever.
