July 21 2014
– Burbank, CA – Lock and load and prepare to have your faces
melted by fun, suckerbutts. Nerdist Industries, the multi-platform creator of
genre and popular culture content, announces its lineup at San Diego Comic-Con
today. Nerdist is primed to make a major impact in San Diego this year, teaming
up with 2K and Gearbox Software for the first-ever Borderlands: The
Pre-Sequel Laser Tag at Petco Park.
NERDIST
LASER TAG: BORDERLANDS: THE PRE-SEQUEL
Thursday, July 24 – Saturday, July 26 11am-5pm Petco Park (100 Park
Blvd, San Diego)
While we can't take you to the moon of Pandora for
insurance reasons, Nerdist is teaming up with 2K and Gearbox Software to bring
you as far inside Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel as humanly possible through
interactive laser tag. What better way to celebrate a game with bazillions of
guns, than by pew-pew-pewing your friends and other Comic-Con attendees with
lasers? Priority access goes to SDCC badge holders and free to the public,
Nerdist Laser Tag will let two teams of 25 players each go head to head to
prove who's the baddest Vault Hunter of them all. With special guests like
Chris Hardwick and Gearbox president Randy Pitchford, along with prizes for Borderlands
cosplayers, a Nerdist stage with Jessica Chobot interviewing some of the
hottest talent in town, a moon-ready oxygen bar and so much more, this is the
most fun you can have outside the cold, unfeeling reaches of space.
"I AM GOING TO DESTROY YOU WITH LASERS, RANDY PITCHFORD." declares Nerdist Founder and CEO, Chris Hardwick.
