A Borderlands Fan's Dream Comes True: Early Access to Borderlands 4
Cancer patient Caleb McAlpine, a devoted Borderlands fan, recently received an incredible gift: early access to Borderlands 4, thanks to the game's community and Gearbox Software. His inspiring story highlights the power of online communities and corporate compassion.
A Sneak Peek at Borderlands 4
McAlpine, in a heartwarming Reddit post on November 26th, detailed his experience. Gearbox flew him and a friend first-class to their studio, where they toured the facilities, met developers, and played the highly anticipated Borderlands 4. McAlpine described the gameplay as "amazing," praising the game's current state. His trip also included a VIP tour of the Omni Frisco Hotel at The Star, courtesy of the hotel.
While McAlpine remained tight-lipped about specific details of Borderlands 4, he emphasized the overwhelmingly positive experience, expressing gratitude to everyone who supported his request.
From Wish to Reality
McAlpine's journey began on October 24th, 2024, with a heartfelt Reddit post. He shared his cancer diagnosis and limited prognosis, expressing his wish to play Borderlands 4 before it was too late. His plea, initially described as a "long shot," quickly gained traction within the passionate Borderlands community.
The outpouring of support led to numerous individuals contacting Gearbox, ultimately prompting a swift response from CEO Randy Pitchford. Pitchford's Twitter (X) message confirmed direct communication with McAlpine and a commitment to fulfilling his wish. Within a month, Gearbox granted McAlpine's request.
A GoFundMe campaign established to aid McAlpine's cancer treatment has also seen a surge in donations, exceeding its initial goal of $9,000. The positive attention surrounding his Borderlands 4 experience has further amplified support for his cause. The story serves as a testament to the power of community and the human spirit in the face of adversity.
