Randy Pitchford: Battle royale games are fun, that’s not what we’re making

Live from PAX East

The Gearbox PAX East panel just started and Randy Pitchford is still laying the teasers on thick. There are promises that they’re saving the best for last in the hour-long presentation.

But, an interesting note from the first five minutes is Pitchford addressing all the speculation by saying “Battle royale games are fun. That’s not what we’re doing.” Well, there’s one theory debunked.

We’ll be breaking out all the news as it happens. Or, you can follow along by watching the livestream that’s embedded at the top of the post. The Claptrap dubstep rap is over, so it’s safe to fire up the stream.
