Wondering what’s Gearbox Software’s plans for next-gen, here’s what the studio’s CEO Randy Pitchford had to say.

“We’ve got a few things going on right now that we haven’t talked about but that’ll appear later. I’m always excited by movement forward,” he said to Gamasutra.

“Some of that comes from iteration with our software, and some of it comes from iteration with hardware, and some of it comes from invention… each new step kind of gives us new tools and new capabilities that always makes the entertainment better, if we use it right.

“More power is always better. There’s always things we can do that we cannot do today that we can do with more power. So, that’s always true.”

Their latest game Borderlands 2 has gone gold and will be released later this year for the PS3, Xbox 360 and PC.
