New Borderlands Game Will Feature Elon Musk’s Flamethrower

We don’t know all that much about the upcoming Borderlands game, with Gearbox Software and 2K Games remaining tight-lipped, for the most part. There have been hints that 90 percent of the studio is working on Borderlands 3, and Gearbox job listings for an “unannounced AAA FPS/RPG hybrid” have been spotted, but other than that, little is known.

However, thanks to a brief interaction between Gearbox Software’s president Randy Pitchford and Elon Musk, we now know of a weapon that will be featured in the new Borderlands game.

Elon Musk’s “The Boring Company Flamethrower,” which is currently going viral across various social media sites, and is available to pre-order for $500, will be making its way into the new Borderlands game.

Borderlands games are renowned for parodying real-life events, so I’m sure we’ll see a funny application for Elon Musk’s flamethrower. Maybe Tesla will get the spotlight, too!

What other weapons do you want to see featured in the new Borderlands game? Let us know.
