Gearbox Software on aktiivisesti vihjaillut sosiaalisessa mediassa tulevista pelijulkistuksistaan PAX East -tapahtumassa 28. maaliskuuta Bostonissa. Näiden joukossa pyörii myös sitkeästi Borderlands 3.
Pohjois-Amerikan ikäraja-auktoriteetti ESRB on antanut ikärajan nimikkeelle Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition, joka on tulossa PC:lle, PS4:lle ja Xbox Onelle.
Ensimmäinen Borderlands onkin se ainoa peli sarjassa, josta ei ole vielä julkaistu uusintaversiota.
"This is a first-person shooter in which players assume the role of a Vault Hunter (i.e., treasure hunter) on a quest to uncover an alien vault on the planet of Pandora. Players explore an open-world environment and interact with characters, while completing mission objectives. Combat missions require players to use futuristic firearms (e.g., acid pistols, electrical shotguns, grenade launchers) to kill human bandits, alien creatures, and robotic sentries. Battles are frenetic and accompanied by screams of pain, gunfire, and large explosions. Human enemies emit large splashes of blood when shot and killed; some attacks may result in dismemberment and/or decapitation."
"The game contains frequent instances of mature humor, sometimes suggestive/sexual in nature: radio advertisements for male-enhancement products (e.g., "Do you ever feel like you are firing blanks?"); dialogue and text about body parts and other innuendo (e.g., "Really 'preciate you takin' a poke at that...uh, the system, not my mom"; "And pop! Went the weasel. I like it when things pop."). The words "sh*t" and "a*shole" are heard in the game."
