About Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is the newest entry in the
critically acclaimed Borderlands franchise that is currently
being co-developed by Gearbox Software and 2K Australia.
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel continues the franchise’s
tradition of industry-leading co-op, allowing up to four players to
experience all-new low-gravity, shoot ‘n’ loot gameplay on
Pandora’s moon. Featuring four new playable character classes armed
with powerful laser and icy Cryo weapons, players will battle
against an array of new enemies. Taking place in-between the events
of Borderlands and Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The
Pre-Sequel is a great introduction into the franchise while
showcasing Handsome Jack’s transformation into the ruthless tyrant
fans loved to hate in Borderlands 2.
