Remember that crazy rumor from last week that
Borderlands was going to be an MMO? It was so crazy and unbelievable you just
had to laugh. It was also completely true, and it's now confirmed that
Borderlands Online will be
coming to China, published by
Shanda Games and developed by
Gearbox. There are no apparent plans to bring the game to the US.
Four classes will be available in
Borderlands Online: Warrior, Ranger, Wizard, and Berserker. The game is planned for a release in 2015; a mobile title is also in development, although it's unclear whether it will be a tie-in to the online game or a port of an existing title. So, yes, that crazy rumor was apparently
right on the money.
