Didn’t a leak about a max Payne remake surface a while ago?

Mafia 4 would be cool if set in a 70s to 80s era

2K Games Will Reveal Sequel to One of Its 'Biggest and Most Beloved Franchises' at Summer Game Fest

2K Games is preparing to reveal the sequel to a "beloved franchise" at Summer Game Fest, with fans speculating that it might be Borderlands 4, BioShock 4, Mafia 4, and numerous other popular games.

I'm assuming it will be Borderlands 4. If it's Bioshock 4, I will be Bioshocked.

shinoff21838d ago

Xcom would be much better to reveal. Been needing some xcom 3

TheColbertinator7d ago

XCOM 3 would be my dream announcement

SpacedDuck7d ago

Please don't be a other generic Borderlands Game.

They are so boring due to the lack of innovation.
