Developer Overview


They have a new site but it doesn't seem to be working at the moment. Will post when fixed.

*********************************

The wait is finally over for a new game in the Borderlands universe! We're launching you to Pandora's moon for the first time in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, currently being co-developed by Gearbox Software and 2K Australia, and available on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC later this fall.

Set between Borderlands and Borderlands 2, you'll play as four new characters classes fighting alongside Handsome Jack, witnessing his transformation into the ruthless tyrant you loved to hate in Borderlands 2, and assisting with the rise of the Hyperion Corporation. The signature shoot 'n' loot gameplay of the Borderlands series expands with the addition of low-gravity and oxygen-powered jetpack combat, the icy 'Cryo' elemental damage type, the deadly laser weapon class, and new vehicles to help you explore the lunar landscape.


Who will those four new playable character classes be, you ask? Well, they are all familiar faces from the Borderlands universe:

- Athena, the Gladiator: Uses her Kinetic Aspis, which is a shield that can absorb incoming damage, then convert it back into energy to use against enemies. Athena made her debut in The Secret Armory of General Knoxx DLC for the first Borderlands game.

- Wilhelm, the Enforcer: Wilhelm was previously seen in Borderlands 2 as one of the first deadly bosses in the game.

- Nisha, the Lawbringer: The sheriff of Lynchwood from Borderlands 2, Nisha will be dealing out her own brand of justice, which we'll discuss further in the coming months.

- Claptrap, the Fragtrap: Wait - Claptrap? The goofy robot companion from Borderlands 2, now playable for the first time? Fragtrap is his character class? Well, you can play him too!

Ditto. It's on PC so I'm not bothered with the last gen tie in.

Will have to see how much they add to the series. Not sure how I feel about playing with Claptrap.

They better have an option to mute the in-game claptrap voice.

lol at the AJF comments from champs.
Cartoon graphics + Space + unrealistic weapons and powers = AJF won't even acknowledge this thread I suspect.
