The exclusion of the clamptrap, in the Borderlands franchise than sirens. Their abilities as NPCs and playable vault hunters formed the story and playing of the series, each input further describing in detail how strong the beings are. With the introduction of Vex, the latest sirens in the series, Borderlands 4 It can take this link even further.
Over the years, players have been introduced by six canonical siren forces: Phasewalk, Phasetranec, Phaseleech, Phaseleck, Phaseshift and New ability Vex, seemingly called Phase Covenant. The Eridians in the Universe have introduced a strict limitation that there may only be seven sirens at a given moment. With the upcoming triggering Borderlands 4 On the horizon, this tradition evokes a critical consideration: the upcoming sequel can be the last game in the series that represents a brand new siren ability.
Seven sirens and rules of the border Lore
For context, Borderlands 2 established siren Lore. Previously, they were deliberately a vague element of the first game. In the echoch protocols, a nice jack described in detail that no more than six sirens could not exist at the same time and acquainted Lilith, Maya, Angel and the late Steele commander among the famous characters.
Borderlands 3 They introduced Amar and Tyreen as new sirens and replaced the late angel with Tannis. Even more importantly, he also switched the previous tradition and indicated the existence of the hidden seventh siren in Borderlands 3. This revelation completely shifted the understanding of the siren of tradition and prepared a stage for an even more narrative complexity of the progressing forward.
This is where Borderlands The franchise sirens currently stands: Lilith, the most famous siren franchise, primarily used Phasewalk; Angel and later Tannis employed Phaseshift for direct connection with technology; Maya and her successors Ava dominate Phaseleck, the ability to control the crowd more than it is likely that he also uses the late Queen Dido of Athenas; Borderlands 3The playable siren of Amar brought a phase to the table, while Tyreen and Troy inherited Nyriad's devastating phasele.
The sixth known ability, which is seemingly called a phase contract, belongs to Vex, Borderlands 4The latest siren.
Steele Commander: Borderlands' (Other) Original Siren
One of the largest gaps in tradition is the commander of the Steele, because despite the confirmation of the state of her siren after the first BorderlandsHer real ability has never been revealed. Lore suggests that Lilith, Angel, Maya and Amar have already shown their forces during the Steele of Life, which means she couldn't have any of her abilities. Phaseleech is also unlikely because nyrida locked up to ensure the secrets of power until Tyreen Calypso inherited the ability Borderlands 3.
This leaves Steele as one of the greatest secrets Borderlands The history of franchise, and if the franchise tradition remains unchanged, its unknown ability is the most likely candidate for another siren. If Vex does not show his heir, then the potential Borderlands 5 He could finally bring the Steele's ability to come to the forefront and close one of the oldest narrative gaps in the franchise.
Vex, Commander of the Steele and Borderlands' seventh siren
Another great peculiarity of franchise is identity Borderlands' Estimated seventh siren. In her final recordings, Nyrid cryptically warned against the danger of this mysterious character. If Nyriad refers only to its own decision to lock phaseleech, then the number of powers can be completed. However, if there is indeed another undiscovered siren, then Borderlands 4 could introduce the last original siren.
The VEX phase contract seems to be completely unrelated to the Steele Unknown power and Nyriad's Phaseleech. According to the rules of the established tradition, there are only two sirens and one ability for: Anyone inherited Tyreen Calypso's phaseleech, and a siren that took the unknown ability of the Steele commander. This means that the gearbox will soon have to reveal the identity of the seventh siren and recycle old abilities in this process.
Role Vex in Borderlands 4 and Siren Canon
Soon playing suggests the capabilities of vex in Borderlands 4 It stems from her passive, dubbed phase contract. Although seemingly a completely new ability, a story Borderlands 4 It is set about 18 to 19 years after the original game, which places Vex's age to the extent, where the heritage is at least theoretically possible from the steel. Either way, it leaves one ability to leave unknown and technically it can't be all new.
If Phase Covenant is a completely new ability, it seems that it would probably do the last truly unique siren. If tradition does not change, siren Borderlands 5 There will be two options: the first is interesting, but a surprising return of the ability of Phaseleech Tyreen Calypso. Since players do not actually know what was capable, the other would be the ability of the stele, which is the only “technically” new option that remains available afterwards Borderlands 4.
Future Sirens outside Borderlands 4
Although it would be exciting to see what the ability of the steel was, it is clear that the gearbox painted the sirens in the corner by determining such strict restrictions, how much it can actually exist. If Vex did not inherit the ability of the stele and the tradition of sirens has not changed Borderlands 4It could technically indicate the end of “new” siren forces.
Once all seven powers are revealed, any future contributions in the franchise will seem to be forced to recycle old abilities and pass them on to the successor or potentially retCon established rules.
For fans invested in Borderlands Story, it can be a double -edged sword. Some may consider this result an uninteresting position to leave sirens, but it could be a kind of challenge that forces the gearbox to use the existing tradition to create interesting new features of the story. It all depends on how Borderlands 4 The siren of mythos and if it sets a good foundation for future plot points.
If the sequence of energy ends up as a way of things going, Borderlands 4 It really has to succeed in the climax of more than a decade of speculation, binding unresolved mysteries emerged all the way back in the original Borderlands. If it can hold it, it can work re -re -re -registers. No matter how it happens, it is obvious that it is obvious Borderlands 4Siren Lore is preparing for its best moment.
