During today’s PlayStation Showcase, the folks at Gearbox Software have finally provided us with a more complete view of the upcoming Border lands spin-off known as Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands.
This game revelation shows a lot Border lands– Shooting against a variety of fantastic creatures and adventures of some kind over the world, all ready for a rocking Babymetal track. Yes, there are many weapons as well. I like, lots of of pistols.
“We want you to explore and try all ways to use your firepower,” creative director Matt Cox more explained on the PlayStation blog. “In that spirit, today ‘s trailer is a significant pillar of the Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands experience: create your own hero. We’ll have a lot more to share about this in the future, but we’ve created a multi-class system that lets you mix and match six unique character skill trees, all with their own awesome skills. You can also customize the look and sound of your players.
Wonderland take a glimpse of the brilliant Border lands 2 expansion Assault of Tiny Tina on Dragon Keep, transporting players from Border lands‘traditional post-apocalyptic setting in a fantasy world where Tiny Tina shapes the narrative in the heat of the moment as a’ master of bunkers’. Expect excessive dialogue and numerous references to “badonkadonks,” because that would be Tiny Tina without a layer of cultural appropriation.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands was first announced back during the Summer Games Fest. Then Randy Pitchford, CEO of Gearbox, described Wonderland as “the culmination of more than a decade of intermittent development into a role-playing shooter set in a fantasy universe.”
G / O Media may receive a commission
Although the game is designed to separate from the core Border lands series, Wonderland it still keeps the shady graphics, cooperative structure, and highly repeatable gameplay loops the franchise is known for, with only a few dragons and goblins thrown into the mix for good measure.
In addition to Ashly Burch resuming her role as namesake Tiny Tina, the Wonderland the voice cast features the talent of legendary comedian Wanda Sykes, a former Saturday night live cast member Andy Samberg and Will Arnett of Development stopped i Bojack Horseman fame.
Tiny Tina can be one of the absolute worst things Border lands, however, as with most things related to the notoriously creepy, yet still amusingly addictive series, I’m captively optimistic about what this latest booty-driven exit brings to the table.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands arrives on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X / S and PC (courtesy of Steam and Epic Games Store) in early 2022.
