” Our objective with Arms Race is to make the gun game in our video game of countless weapons really matter,” said imaginative director Graeme Timmins.
Follow me on Twitter, YouTube and Instagram. Get my sci-fi novels Herokiller and Herokiller 2, and read my very first series, The Earthborn Trilogy, which is likewise on audiobook.
The new mode is called “Arms Race,” and according to GameSpot it “will be a brand-new standalone mode that brings gamers to a separated map, where every weapon they select up will matter throughout the video game mode. Pitchford stated that it has aspects that gamers who love Call of Duty and fight royale games may find interesting, but it is “not a fight royale game.”
We have been promised more info about both this mode and the new ability trees in October, so stay tuned for that.
I have already been informed outright by Gearbox that new class mods tied to the brand-new 4th skill trees will be found in this mode as loot, so thats where youll farm them. I do wonder how a Gun Game concept would deal with say, Moze, who can go through entire maps utilizing absolutely nothing however Iron Bear at this moment, and actual guns have virtually no effect on builds like that.

Buried in a prolonged GameSpot interview about Borderlands 3 as an entire, Gearbox has actually revealed the first information about a promised completely new mode for the second year of the game, something that will be revealing up instead of conventional story DLC as the game continues to add content.
Still, this sounds like a special idea that I am certainly curious to hear more about. I am not really in love with numerous of Borderlands 3s present “endgame” activities, Slaughterhouses, Proving Grounds or Takedowns, so possibly this would be more my speed. We have actually been promised more details about both this mode and the new skill trees in October, so remain tuned for that.
So, how would that translate into Borderlands PvE? In an “separated map” you might be removed of all your present weapons, then need to begin with white weapons, then eliminate things to loot green guns, then blue, then purple, then finally getting back to legendaries again (and hi, maybe this is time to introduce Pearlescents). You clear the map and after that … I guess land some real loot that you can reclaim out into the world, or maybe some things that help you more effectively clear the Arms Race mode in the future.

Alright so while this isnt totally defined, both Call of Duty and the expression “gun game” are discussed here. That will bring a very particular mode to mind from COD, literally called Gun Game, where players start with a fundamental weapon and are upgraded to new weapons after getting kills.
In an “isolated map” you might be removed of all your existing guns, then have to begin with white weapons, then eliminate things to loot green guns, then blue, then purple, then lastly getting back to legendaries again (and hi, maybe this is time to introduce Pearlescents). You clear the map and then … I think land some genuine loot that you can take back out into the world, or possibly some things that help you more effectively clear the Arms Race mode in the future.
