Borderlands combines the elements of Gearbox Software’s famed first-person action titles with player customization and vehicular combat.

Gearbox Software has developed the technology to create Borderlands’s layers of gameplay. Borderlands features a content generation system allowing variety in missions, environments, enemies, weapons, item drops and character customization.

Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K, said: Borderlands represent an important evolutionary leap in game design and technology.

By utilizing revolutionary new technology to create thousands of unique, randomly generated missions, weapons and situations, Borderlands will raise the bar for next-gen action games, he added.
