Discover the co-op shooter-looter that started it all, crammed with content and enhancements! Equip bazillions of guns as one of four trigger-happy mercenaries, each with unique RPG skills. Take on the lawless desolate planet Pandora in pursuit of powerful alien technology: The Vault. With new weapons, visual upgrades, all 4 add-on packs and more, enjoy the highly acclaimed FPS/RPG solo or in 4-player split screen co-op!

Bazillions of Guns: Rocket-launching shotguns, enemy-torching revolvers, SMGs that fire lightning rounds, and tons more.

Radical Art Style: Traditional rendering techniques combined with hand-drawn textures give Borderlands its iconic style.

Intense Vehicular Combat: Behind the wheel, engage in frenetic vehicle-to-vehicle combat.

Co-op Frenzy: Whether online or together on the couch, tear through the opposition as a crew of up to 4.

VISUALLY STUNNING: With improved character models, environments, weapons, and textures, Borderlands paired with a 4K display never looked so good.

NEW WEAPONS: There are already too many to count so we added more.

NEW CHARACTER HEADS: Be as beautiful as mom says you are.

NEW GOLD CHESTS AND KEYS: More loot!
