Tales From the Borderlands Redux Leak Seems to Tease Sequel

Two short video clips of what is reportedly a trailer for a Tales From The Borderlands re-release with added content has been posted online. The videos also tease a sequel to the Telltale episodic adventure series. First surfacing on Reddit, the two clips are videos of a trailer playing on a monitor. The clips fit together to make the whole trailer (both are under a minute as they are hosted on Imgur, which only allows videos of up to 60 seconds), which reveals a game called Tales From The Borderlands Redux. [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2015/10/20/tales-from-the-borderlands-episode-5-the-vault-of-the-traveler-review"] If real, Redux will apparently include developer commentary for each episode, codex entries, new concept art, unused content from the original release, and a new “mini” episode. The trailer does say how many minutes of extra gameplay this episode will provide, but the framing of the shot cuts the digits out of frame. The trailer concludes on a 2020 date, which then flickers into a single digit - 2 - which could be seen as a teaser for a sequel or second season of Tales From The Borderlands. The studio logos at the start of the trailer include Telltale, 2K, Gearbox and, most interestingly, Adhoc Studio, a developer set up by ex-Telltale Games staff after the company originally shut down. Adhoc previously hinted that it would be working on a live-action project akin to Black Mirror’s Bandersnatch interactive episode, but if this leak proves true it also looks like it has been working with new Telltale to create Redux. Pierre Shorette, Adhoc Studio’s CCO, was senior lead writer for Tales From The Borderlands, so there is a link. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-ign-borderlands-review&captions=true"] This trailer is the latest in a series of rumours that Telltale is looking to bring back Tales From The Borderlands, but the first one to provide any video evidence. No official confirmation from any of the studios reportedly involved has been announced, so for now this continues to be a rumour rather than definite project. As for that teased sequel, Borderlands 3 writer Sam Winkler has said that he’d love to write a second season of Tales From The Borderlands.
