A handsome guy just can't catch a break. History is told by those who win, and Handsome Jack definitely did not win. Hyperion's leader opened up some vaults and took over Pandora, only to catch a few bullets for his trouble. Okay, maybe man...

It's been a little while since Gearbox unleashed the first big event for Borderlands 3, but Bloody Harvest is here to stay for a while, and thus, there's plenty of opportunities to tweak it. This past hotfix was mostly harvest-centric, incr...

Borderlands has a history of giving out free stuff in the weirdest, most annoying ways possible outside of all of the free and paid true "DLC" offerings. Gearbox loves its Shift Code system and 2K loves its "scour the official website and g...

Borderlands 3 doesn't have its first major premium DLC yet, but it is hosting its first major free event: Bloody Harvest. This thing is all Halloween and neon-green, and will run from now through December 5: right on through until the true ...

Borderlands 3 has been welcoming a ton of free events lately. The first involved extra boss drops, the second centered around rare enemy spawns and the third was an Eridium-based giveaway of sorts. This week the big gimmick is Twitch. Yep, ...

Gearbox teased their Bloody Harvest event for Borderlands 3 recently (a callback to the Bloody Harvest from Borderlands 2), but now we have some real cold hard info on it, like dates! It'll kick off this week on October 24, and ru...

FL4K has been spared the wrath of another Borderlands 3 patch. All is right with the world. As players try their best to create instant boss nuke builds and Gearbox tries to snuff those out, the battle for balance continues. Many legendary ...

Gearbox has been pushing Borderlands 3 this past month or so with events, and why not? The paid DLC train is leaving the station very soon, and may take years to return, so you may as well grease some palms with some free stuff. In cas...

Borderlands 3's hotfixes have been sort of a bummer in recent weeks, mostly just nerfing exploits and overpowered character skills. It's good for game balance, but it's bad for absolutely melting bosses. The most recent hotfix, however, is ...

Gearbox is continuing their five week celebration of all things Borderlands with yet another anniversary event. This time around, "Week 2" deals with rare spawns in Borderlands 3, and will force rare spawns to show up in specific locations ...

With all the recent FL4K nerfs, the discussions surrounding them really got me thinking: who do you play as in Borderlands 3 most of the time? I stuck with FL4K for my first playthrough during my review session, and although I did...

For nearly the entirety of 2019, Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford has been embroiled in a messy legal battle. Pitchford and former Gearbox attorney Wade Callender (who were childhood friends) sued and countersued each other. Pitchford alleged th...

Gearbox has been toiling away trying to fix some of Borderlands 3's bugs, and with those bug fixes come character tweaks: some good, some bad. FL4K, a very popular character in the base roster of four has been getting adjustments here and t...

Can you believe that the first Borderlands game came out in October of 2009? I can't either as I mostly ejected it from my memory, but subsequent follow-ups like Borderlands 2 and 3 ensured that I'd never forget this series. Gearbox is bank...

Borderlands' signature art style is a defining trait for the series. Splashy and vibrant, the color palette is an effective complement to all the violence. However, it's evidently not an absolute necessity. Modder RedxYeti has created a Bo...

Acclaimed game composer Bobby Prince (known for his work on Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, and Duke Nukem 3D) has filed a lawsuit against Gearbox Software, Valve, and Randy Pitchford for unlawful usage of his work in Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary ...

Dreezy is back this week on the Destructoid Twitch channel with some more Borderlands 3 gameplay, commentary, and starting tonight our first community pick: Troll and I! I don't know which is worse, honestly, the lack of hair on Dreezy's b...

There's a side quest in Borderlands 3 that you can tackle fairly early on -- I think I finished it around level 15 -- that culminates in a real motherfucker of a boss fight. In the "Kill KillaVolt" mission, Mad Moxxi asks that you murd...

Despite numerous technical issues and people complaining about Epic Games Store exclusivity, Borderlands 3 has gone on to be a pretty damn big success. According to publisher 2K Games, the latest entry in Gearbox's looter shooter has not on...

Only a week after launching, Borderlands 3 is already looking forward to the holidays. The people of Pandora aren't taking a vacation, though. They're shooting at specters and skeletons. For Halloween, Gearbox is throwing a free Bloody...

I have a complicated history with Borderlands, and I suspect that's a fairly common experience. Okay, so it's not all that complicated but bear with me. I wasn't super into the first game. Sue me! "Better with friends" is an idiom/crutch th...

Borderlands 3 is nearly upon us. With all the positive reviews buzzing around the net, fans likely can't wait to get their hands on the game this Friday. If you're dying to see just a little bit more, than take a gander at the recently upl...
