About Borderlands 3

About this game

The original shooter-looter returns, packing bazillions of guns and an all-new mayhem-fueled adventure! Blast through new worlds and enemies as one of four brand new Vault Hunters – the ultimate treasure-seeking badasses of the Borderlands, each with deep skill trees, abilities, and customization. Play solo or join with friends to take on insane enemies, score loads of loot and save your home from the most ruthless cult leaders in the galaxy.

A MAYHEM-FUELED THRILL RIDE

Stop the fanatical Calypso Twins from uniting the bandit clans and claiming the galaxy’s ultimate power. Only you, a thrill-seeking Vault Hunter, have the arsenal and allies to take them down.

YOUR VAULT HUNTER, YOUR PLAYSTYLE

Become one of four extraordinary Vault Hunters, each with unique abilities, playstyles, deep skill trees, and tons of personalization options. All Vault Hunters are capable of awesome mayhem alone, but together they are unstoppable.

LOCK, LOAD, AND LOOT

With bazillions of guns and gadgets, every fight is an opportunity to score new gear. Firearms with self-propelling bullet shields? Check. Rifles that spawn fire-spewing volcanoes? Obviously. Guns that grow legs and chase down enemies while hurling verbal insults? Yeah, got that too.

NEW BORDERLANDS

Discover new worlds beyond Pandora, each featuring unique environments to explore and enemies to destroy. Tear through hostile deserts, battle your way across war-torn cityscapes, navigate deadly bayous, and more!

QUICK & SEAMLESS CO-OP ACTION

Bad story, Great mechanics

Turn dialogue volume all the way down, put on your favourite podcast, and just enjoy the lootin' and shootin'! Great art style and build variety, tons of fun when you ignore the story

Lots of guns, gadgets and laughs

Fanatical User
Staff Review
More action than you can shake a cel-shaded stick at. Shooter-looter Borderlands 3 has action in every corner of Pandora's stunning art-style world, and with a bazillion guns and gadgets to find and, happily, use on unsuspecting enemies, B3 oozes epic FPS gameplay while also keeping gamers laughing along with its tongue-in-cheek dialog. The Borderlands series continues to go from strength to strength, and we can't wait to see what future installments hold after the success of Borderlands 3!

It's alright

Gameplay loop and gunplay is a bit better, but the story took a hit. It's alright, not amazing.

One of the best looter-shooters I've seen. While the story is meh, the gameplay more than makes up for it.

Borderlands is just good fun I didnt really like the classes in this game as much as 1 and 2 but i can see they tried for something different. Gameplay is fun and enjoyable with friends. A good looter shooter.

I loved Borderlands 2, and this game has that same great feel. The pre-sequal was a bit of a disappointment, but this definitely is a worthy successor. Getting it for less than $20 only makes it better.
