The trailer for the Borderlands movie is out, watch it here!

Industry veterans Tina Merry and Carina Kom have formed a new studio, Simply Sweet Games.

Despite tumult at developer Gearbox, the studio wants fans to know that isn't in any trouble. Since being acquired by parent company Embracer in 2021, many fans of the long-running shooter role-playing game have expressed concern regarding the state of the project. Now, after reports suggest that Gearbox will soon be sold to a new parent company, employees make it clear that the work on the franchise is progressing steadily.

Did you pop in Final Fantasy XV only to hitch your Regalia permanently to Galdin Quay? Did you halt progress in Sea of Stars in an effort to filet every single species known to man? If you’re a total fishing freak, there’s an open-world action-RPG on the way for you called Sea Fantasy. 

Composer Nobuo Uematsu is an integral part of Final Fantasy's identity. Even if you don't know his name, you've certainly heard his work, as he was the sole composer on the series for over a decade. Even after other composers were brought on to provide scores for new instalments, Uematsu kept working on the series and even composed the main theme for Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.

As with all video game adaptations, there has been some heated discourse surrounding the Borderlands film. Directed by horror icon, Eli Roth, the film struggled through development before finally being slated for release in 2024. Borderlands is based on the widely popular sci-fi first-person shooter of the same name and is admittedly not the easiest property to adapt. The first game is largely considered the weakest, with only a general overarching plot and no emotional character arc. Borderlands 2 is an entirely different matter, and that has a lot to do with the villainy of charismatic dictator, Handsome Jack.

The upcoming Cate Blanchett-fronted Borderlands film is the start of a «Borderlands Cinematic Universe», according to Gearbox founder Randy Pitchford.

Closely following on from yesterday’s cast reveal we now have the full trailer for the Borderlands movie.

We love movie recommendations here at Polygon. Whether it’s horror, sci-fi, action, comedy, thrillers, or just the best of the year, we’re always trying to introduce readers to new and exciting movies they’ll love. But now we want to find the perfect movie for you. (That’s you.)

Right off the bat, it should be clear that Borderlands is not an easy game to adapt. The video game series takes place in the colorful world of Pandora, where you play one of a few vault hunters looking for a rumored treasure. Unlike Max’s best new show of 2023, The Last of Us, there is not a clear emotional throughline to follow. In the first game, players can choose from several different characters who rarely interact with anyone they’re not shooting at. Borderlands 2 is where the franchise hits its stride as you fight a malicious — if hilarious — dictator.

Gearbox's founder has seemingly teased an unannounced Borderlands game, and some fans think a reveal is right around the corner.

The Borderlands movie trailer has finally dropped and given fans a look at the upcoming live-action adaptation of the popular video game franchise. However, viewers have already noted one change they’re not keen on.

Today, Lionsgate has released the official trailer for the Borderlands movie. Originally announced four years ago when the COVID pandemic was about to explode, the film adaptation of Gearbox's first-person shooter franchise has had its fair of troubles getting to theaters.
