Gearbox offloading Heat IP

Gearbox Software has revealed that it may sell to other studios the right to develop a game based on the 1995 Michael Mann film Heat.

The ten year-old Texan developer, currently at the closing stages of the Borderlands project, said it didn’t have the time resources to work on a Heat game.

In a nutshell, we’re nowhere,” said Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford, speaking to GameSpot.

We have passionate game makers that would love to do it. We’ve got filmmakers that think it’s a great idea that would love to see it done. We have publishing partners that would love to publish it. But we have no time. That’s the limiting factor,” he added.
