A Marvel XCOM Game And A New Borderlands Spin-Off Seem To Be On The Way

The leaks are coming in hot and heavy this morning. 

A Reddit user leaked an upcoming list of 2K Games before at least of them were confirmed by Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier as well as GamesRadar’s Jeff Grubb.

The leak says that we’re getting a new FireAxis game called Codename CODA which is a turn-based action game using Marvel property. It’s been described as “XCOM with Marvel Heroes” with some of the actors voicing the characters.

The list also suggests that a a Borderlands Spin-off called Wonderlands is on the way and it’ll focus on Tiny Tina. This has been previously rumoured and it’s been confirmed that another 2K/Gearbox game is on the way, so this isn’t super surprising.

There’s another game that seems to be earlier on which is currently codenamed “Volt”. This seems to be a new action game with a logo similar to the Fallout logo. It’s been described as “Cthulhu meets Saints Row”.

It’s unclear if we’ll see both of these games revealed at E3, but the Borderlands one is more likely. We do know that Take Two is going to have some kind of showing, so it’d likely be there.

THE LEAKED REDDIT LIST:

  • NBA 2K22: Dirk Nowitzki will be this years cover athlete. EDIT: Could be the cover of another Legend Edition, with other athletes on other editions, as some in the comments have mentioned.

  • Wonderlands: Codename Daffodil – It’s a Borderlands spin-off title featuring Tiny Tina. The final name could also be “Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands” (as this is the name that Gearbox already trademarked.) Seems to be the same style as all other Borderlands games with “Multiclass-Heroes” to play as. This spin-off is rumoured since last year, so I guess this isn’t really new. Reveal should be expected at E3. EDIT: Here’s the trademark for Wonderlands

  • New Firaxis Game: Codename CODA – New turn-based action game using Marvel property. Source described it as “XCOM with Marvel heroes”. Seems like some famous actors are voicing the characters.

  • Codename Volt: New action game, seems to be in really early development. Logo looks similar to the Fallout-Logo. No final name yet. Source described it as “Cthulhu meets Saints Row”. Game looked pretty unfinished in the trailer. Sadly, my source didn’t know which studio is developing this title. I think it could be Hangar13, as they had a leaked contract last year that stated that they are working on a “open-world sci-fi title with supernatural elements”.
