Gearbox is definitely the hot topic in the gaming industry right now. With the recent news that their PAX East panel would contain surprises and reveals, the fans went absolutely nuts with speculation. With a recent Tweet, it basically confirmed a Borderlands 3 announcement. However, gamers are confused by the latest update on Thursday afternoon, which shows a cell-shaded image of Maya, a Borderlands 2 character, looking in the distance at something giant.

We’re not quite sure what exactly Gearbox is pulling with this image. Many of the theories hint at a new Borderlands 2 re-release for the Switch potentially. Others are saying it’s a mobile version. I for one think it would be perfect if Gearbox shows off Borderlands Mobile as a joke during their panel. It would be the perfect troll for all the fans who have been begging for the next entry in the looter shooter series. I also wouldn’t put it past Randy Pitchford to attempt something like that.
Needless to say, the Twitter reactions to this post have been hysterical.
