The recently confirmed next Borderlands game, described as “the big one” by Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford, will only be coming to the latest generation of consoles (via GameSpot). That’s what Take-Two Interactive president Karl Slatoff had to say about publisher 2K Games’ upcoming release in a recent company earnings call.

The game’s existence was announced when Pitchford tweeted a call for developers to join Gearbox’s team for the next Borderlands. No other particulars about the game — such as title, content, or a release window — have been revealed yet.

In the meantime, series fans with PlayStation 4 or Xbox One will be able to get Borderlands: The Handsome Collection on March 24, collecting Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, and all of the associated downloadable content for those games into one package. That extra bit of practice in bringing Borderlands to the latest consoles will no doubt be useful for Gearbox as they prepare for the next full-fledged entry in the franchise.

Arm thinks AI is the secret to better gaming on your phone
Arm’s new Mali GPU uses neural rendering to chase sharper visuals, smoother frame rates, and more ambitious ray tracing without pushing phones quite as hard.
Photography, Light, Person

PC gaming has spent the past few years leaning heavily on AI to squeeze better graphics and higher frame rates out of hardware. Now, Arm wants to bring a similar idea to the phones in our pockets.

Arm has unveiled the Mali G2-Ultra NX, its first mobile GPU designed with dedicated neural acceleration built directly into the graphics hardware. That sounds like a mouthful, but the idea behind it is surprisingly simple: instead of asking the GPU to brute-force every pixel and every frame, AI can help fill in some of the gaps. For mobile gaming, where battery life and heat matter as much as raw performance, that could be a pretty big deal.
