Keep reading to discover everything you need to know about the second Borderlands 3 DLC, including its release date, setting, and new gear.

The Borderlands 3 DLC 2 follows the story of Sir Alistair Hammerlock and Wainwright Jacobs — hence the expansion’s name — as they get wrapped up in all sorts of trouble following their marriage. Gearbox promises that several familiar faces will be in attendance, including former Vault Hunter Gaige and her robot companion Deathtrap.
The second Borderlands 3 DLC includes a new location called Xylourgos. Described as a “harsh, windswept ice world,” players can expect to encounter fierce, frozen monsters and powerful occult enemies. So much for a picture-perfect wedding vacation, right? This second DLC also includes new Legendary items, new Vault Hunter heads and skins, and several new interactive Room Decorations.
