Let's Do The News! (April 10, 2014)

The big scoop today...

- 2K Games announced the latest installment of the award-winning Borderlands franchise and this latest installment bridges the gap between the original and the second one. Borderlands The Pre-Sequel, due late 2014, lets players play four (familiar) characters fighting alongside Handsome Jack and witness how did he became the villain we all love to hate in the second one. This time, players are taking on a new adventure in Elpis, the moon of Pandora. Because it takes place on Elpis, expect zero-gravity fun all-round and the use of O2 is necessary to survive the zero-gravity mess on Elpis.
