The forthcoming Borderlands game will seemingly be developed specifically for the Xbox One and PS4.

Word comes from Take-Two President Karl Slatoff during an earnings call today, where he stated that the next Borderlands game, cutely referred to as “the big one” by Randy Pitchford, would be developed  “specifically for next-gen consoles.”

Now, that qoute could just mean the game would be geared towards the Xbox One and PS4 with last-gen versions taking the backseat, but his words do seem to suggest that the new game will only be arriving on Xbox One and PS4, and presumably PC. Sales of the Xbox One and PS4 have been pretty strong, so it’s not massively surprising to hear that Gearbox will be moving over to developing for them, but it is a strong indicator that those with an Xbox 360 or PS3 might want to seriously start considering making the leap.
