Of course, we’re not talking about Battleborn, and we’re definitely not talking about Aliens: Colonial Marines and Duke Nukem Forever.

But beyond Borderlands, they are also known for another property that is beloved by a core, dedicated fanbase. And as Borderlands grew in size and scope and popularity, so too did Gearbox. Gearbox Software hit the mainstream hard with Borderlands back in 2009, kicking off the looter shooter craze in earnest, which is something that now dominates the industry.
