GC 2011: First Borderlands 2 trailer teases

2K kicks off GamesCom with a slow-mo bang

See all of CVG's GamesCom 2011 coverage

With GamesCom about to kick off in Cologne, 2K has beaten most to the punch by releasing the first trailer for Borderlands 2.

It's only a short blast of the sequel - fulfilling its teasing duties nicely - but does more than enough to build some love for that memorable art style all over again.

Have a look:

2K will be streaming Borderlands 2 live from Cologne. Get all the details from last week to find out how you can watch it from the comfort of your bath.

    I saw this earlier and was thinking that the mag on his gun looks like it's off a car wheel.
    So could you be making weapons out of miscellaneous items?

    I can never get the CVG player to work properly. It either takes forever or doesn't load at all.

    Here is a Youtube version for those that can't get it to work either.

    It's going to be ace lets face it. Seems like a reasonable amount of time for a sequel too. 3 or 4 years is good.

    I'm playing through the first one with my girlfriend and remarked how I wish in Borderlands 2 that you could make your own guns, or at least mod them yourself. This little snippet certainly gives me hope that this is true.

    Stuttering again! Took ages to load, then played fine for a few seconds and got stuck for about 10 seconds before playing the rest. CVG - YouTube is your friend.

    Sort out your video player CVG! Can't wait to see what they show of Borderlands 2 at GamesCom.

    Took a while to load but worked eventually no problems. Have had problems with it before though, not loading at all.

    Anyway, short and sweet vid.

    agreed. CVG player is rubbish. Though perhaps I shouldn't be trying to watch these things at work!?!

    It certainly doens't make me want to use the new CVG video site! :(

    Graphics look too cartoony! :wink:

    I'm suprised they have already released footage of it. Looks to be a good show and a massive plus is that it's not being released with the mass of big games!
