Gearbox Software has just sent over the cover ofPC Gamer, whereBorderlandsis going to be enjoying a blowout of new information, especially regarding the dramatic shift in art style that was one of yesterday’shottest topics. According to Gearbox, the cover image is from an in-game screenshot. Go look at it. Yes, that’s supposed to bein-game.
Now you’re able to see why they didn’t want to just call it “cel-shading.”
If what Gearbox tells us is true, then we are potentially looking at one of the most beautiful games this generation. Again, I must comment the studio on its genius here. Within 24 hours,Borderlandswent from a game that only a handful of people cared about to one of the most amazing looking titles out here …potentially, at least.
We’ll have to see the game in action to fully judge this new look, but right now I am seriously impressed. I cannot wait to get my hands on this thing and see if it plays as good as it looks. This is going straight into my “must watch” pile.
