Here’s The First Trailer For Telltale’s ‘Tales From The Borderlands’!
Briefly: It’s been nearly a year since Telltale Games revealed adventure titles based on both Borderlands and Game of Thrones, and while the company has kept details scarce on both games thus far, they’ve just blown the lid open… at least on Tales from the Borderlands.
The just-released two and a half minute trailer should do a damn good job of exciting Borderlands fans, and the developer has also revealed some casting and release info for the game, which is set to debut very soon.
As for casting, here’s what Telltale has revealed so far:
The season will feature Troy Baker as Rhys, Laura Bailey as Fiona, Chris Hardwick as Vaughn, Erin Yvette as Sasha, Patrick Warburton as Vasquez, and Dameon Clarke as Handsome Jack. Additional casting details from the season are yet to be announced.
In the game, you’ll “play as Rhys, a Hyperion ‘suit’ with dreams of being the next Handsome Jack, and Fiona, a Pandoran con artist looking to score her biggest ever swindle. Thrown together as unwilling partners in an adventure to recover cash they both think is theirs, their journey will take you on a wild ride where gangsters, bandit lords, and Vault Hunters are just some of the obstacles you’ll encounter, in this new take on the award-winning universe created by Gearbox Software.”
The season will run Telltale’s standard five-episodes (a standard which the Game of Thrones game is actually set to break) and will release on PS4, PS3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, PC/Mac, and later iOS and Android devices. A season pass will cost a cool (and more than fair) $19.99US ($24.99 on PC/Mac), and as always, will get you each and every episode as it releases.
I’ve only recently discovered (and fallen in love with) the Borderlands series, and as a huge fan of essentially everything that Telltale touches, I cannot wait to make some uncomfortable choices in this world. Take a look at the first trailer below, and we’ll be sure to share more info as soon as we have it.
