So you want to hear a story, eh? Say hello to New Tales from the Borderlands! This standalone, choice-based interactive narrative adventure is coming to Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store on October 21, 2022. Pre-order New Tales from the Borderlands now and get the Adventure Capital Pack (details below!)*
Earlier today, Gearbox Entertainment founder Randy Pitchford joined host Geoff Keighley during Gamescom Opening Night Live to debut the New Tales from the Borderlands announcement trailer.
This raucous adventure takes place within the perpetually war-torn metropolis of Promethea, where you'll control Anu, Octavio, and Fran on the worst day of their lives. Help these three lovable losers as they endeavor to change the world (and maybe even save it)!
Face down a planetary invasion, vicious vault monster, and cold-hearted capitalists in this cinematic thrill ride where what happens next is up to you! Meet a motley cast full of misfits, assassin bots, and talking guns in this race to the top!
It's time to fight back against exploitation and corporate greed. It's time to Make Mayhem Your Business!
AN EXTRAORDINARY CINEMATIC ADVENTURE New Tales from the Borderlands features three playable characters: altruistic scientist Anu, her ambitious, "streetwise" brother Octavio, and the fierce, frogurt-slinging Fran. With nothing left to lose and everything to gain, you'll claw and con your way through this thrilling journey full of gun-toting goons, otherworldly beasts, and delicious tacos.
Along with their unique perspectives, each protagonist has their own gadget to help out during exploration and intense situations alike. Anu can scan objects using her high-tech glasses, Octavio can pull up people's social media info and hack certain devices with his wrist-mounted ECHOdex, and Fran can punch her way through problems or freeze them solid using the built-in accessories of her hoverchair.
The decisions you make determine how your story ends in unexpected ways. Whether it's Anu's vision of a universe that markets more than weapons, Octavio's dreams of fame and fortune, or Fran's frosty plot for revenge, their success or failure depends on you.
The story takes place within a year after the events of Borderlands 3, with familiar faces and locales that fans will recognize—but you don't need to have played any previous Borderlands game to enjoy this self-contained story.
This five-part adventure is delivered all at once, so you can play it at your own pace when the game launches on October 21.
PRE-ORDER BONUSES There are two editions of New Tales from the Borderlands, both of which are available for pre-order now. The Standard Edition (Digital Only) includes the full game, while the Deluxe Edition (Digital + Physical) includes the full game plus the original Tales from the Borderlands so you can experience the previous narrative adventure set in the Borderlands universe!**
When you pre-order New Tales from the Borderlands, you'll get access to the Adventure Capital Pack, featuring cosmetics for Anu, Octavio, and Fran, 10,000 in-game currency, and an in-game FL4K Vaultlander collectible.* The in-game currency can be used to purchase additional cosmetics so you can customize each protagonist's look, whereas the FL4K Vaultlander will build out your in-game collection for epic plasticine combat.
Vaultlanders is a minigame where you battle to the DEATH (with small plastic figures). Throughout the story, there are surprise encounters where you’ll need to engage in plastic figurine warfare, attacking and dodging the enemy figurine via Quick Time Events. These battles are for keeps, as the victor takes the loser’s Vaultlander for their collection! As you play, you can acquire more Vaultlanders through glorious combat and by finding them hidden throughout the environment.
We can't wait for you to experience the unexpected twists, heartwarming emotion, and classic Borderlands humor of New Tales from the Borderlands when it launches on October 21!

New Free Borderlands 2 DLC Now Available!
Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary is an all-new Borderlands 2 campaign DLC that’s FREE until July 8. Requires Borderlands 2 or Borderlands: The Handsome Collection to play.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/872280/Borderlands_2_Commander_Lilith__the_Fight_for_Sanctuary/ Announced during today’s Microsoft Xbox E3 2019 Briefing, Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary is the fifth campaign DLC for Borderlands 2. This all-new adventure not only sets the stage for Borderlands 3 but also introduces some exciting new features along the way. We’re talking new areas to explore, new enemies and bosses to battle, a new level cap to hit, new aesthetic options for your Vault Hunters and vehicles, two new endgame OP levels, and a new better-than-Legendary Effervescent tier of weapons and equipment to loot. And it’s free until July 8!
https://youtu.be/VjRp1BkP1ZI
Led by the legendary Firehawk Lilith, The Crimson Raiders are in possession of the Vault Map and are preparing to leave Sanctuary in search of its secrets. But when Dahl-branded ships full of soldiers arrive and deploy a chemical weapon, the team is forced to change plans, and a hasty escape leaves Lilith and the Vault Hunters scattered across the Pandoran desert. Enemies infected by Dahl’s toxic gas pose a new threat to Pandora, and only you and your friends can stop it.
If you want to start the new Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary with one of your existing Vault Hunters, you need to visit the new “Fight for Sanctuary” location, which is accessible via Fast Travel stations. Note that attempting to play the new DLC content is not recommended unless your Vault Hunter is at least level 30.
Want to jump right into the DLC without delay, regardless of how much Borderlands 2 you’ve played? You also have the option to create a new level 30 Vault Hunter already loaded into the start of Commander Lilith and the Fight for Sanctuary. Go to the Select Character screen, create your level 30 character, and then start the game to automatically be transported to the new content.
Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary will be available for free to all owners of Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Handsome Collection until July 8 at 06:59:59 UTC (11:59:59 PDT). Requires Borderlands 2 or Borderlands: The Handsome Collection to play.
