Borderlands boss says fantasy spin-off Tiny Tina's Wonderlands was "wildly successful," and because it was so big "it's reasonable for our fans to expect more there"

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands.

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands was a massive success for the Borderlands studio, according to Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford, which means that it's not unrealistic that fans should "expect more there."

Speaking to GamesRadar+ during SDCC, Pitchford says that "what we demonstrated with the first Wonderlands game was that there's something there. It was wildly successful and exceeded our expectations." Closer to launch, Gearbox suggested that Tiny Tina's fantasy-shaped spin on the Borderlands formula had "shattered all of our target expectations, both critically and commercially." That was enough to suggest that the studio had "a new franchise on our hands," and while it's been a quiet couple of years since then, it looks like Pitchford is still committing to that.
