Taking place on the 2K Games stream, it will be the first chance to see Borderlands 2 in action following the Game Informer reveal earlier this month.
Fan questions will also be taken throughout the presentation, which you can send to @2KGames or @GearboxSoftware, or post on the 2K Forums and the Gearbox Forums for a chance to win a Borderlands 2 swag bag. Hopefully you’ll find some purples inside!
“The other big area is user interface,†Cooke continued. “We had a ton of fans who played the game on PC, but they honestly got a port of the console game. We heard a lot of fans say, ‘Hey, you didn’t really take care of us here.’ So, we completely ripped out the UI — there’s a completely new UI for PC, it’s mouse-driven, supports drag and drop, all of the things that you would expect in a PC title. It’ll be a lot more fun for people.â€
