Last week at PAX East, the folks at Gearbox teased everyone that Borderlands 3 was in fact a reality and that today, 4/20/2019, we would get more details. Not only did fans get the official launch trailer, but also, Gearbox gave everyone a synopsis of the story, a breakdown of the versions that will be offered, and more importantly, the release date. Fans only have to wait just over 5 months for the game to be a reality. Unfortunately for PC fans, the war of the online stores is continuing. It was announced that Borderlands 3 will only be available through the Epic Game Store for the first 6 months it is out for the PC.
