Brothers in Arms: Furious 4 is new IP

Gearbox has announced that Brothers in Arms: Furious 4 will become an entirely new game.

The Brothers in Arms: Furious 4 title will be dropped and the game will be renamed.

Gearbox CEO, Randy Pitchford, said the game had evolved so much from the Brothers in Arms experience that it had to be given a new title.

Pitchford said: "The game that was announced as Brothers in Arms: Furious 4 has evolved.

"I wanted to let everyone know that that game's no longer going to be a Brothers in Arms game. It's going to be an all-new IP."

No details of a new title were released but Gearbox confirmed the game would be re-announced this month.
