Aw yeah, suckerbutts! The worldwide release of Telltale Games’ Tales from the Borderlands, the five-part adventure game series based on Gearbox Software and 2K’s Borderlands, is right around the corner. In Tales from the Borderlands‘ first episode, “Zer0 Sum”, players will take control of two enterprising adventurers — Rhys, an opportunistic cog in Hyperion’s corporate machine, and Fiona, a crafty con woman with her eyes on the prize — as they each try to make off with a sizable score on the dangerous world of Pandora, a lawless land populated by renegade bandits, deadly monsters, and the majestic Bonerfart. As you may have been able to deduce from yesterday’s Twitter exchange between Telltale, Gearbox, Alamo Drafthouse, and us, we are going to be doing something very special for the premiere of Tales from the Borderlands.
Who: Telltale Games, Gearbox, 2K, Nerdist, and you.
What: The first-ever playthrough of Tales from the Borderlands‘ first episode “Zer0 Sum” where you and other audience members will help make the important decisions LIVE!
