Borderlands 3 PC Specs | The game explained
Borderlands 3 is set to launch on September 13, 2019, and is one of the most highly anticipated games of the year. Like its predecessors, players will be able to team up alongside three other friends to fight through the game’s off-the-wall open-world, picking up increasingly ludicrous weapons as they fight their way through a barrage of enemies.
“Blast through new worlds and enemies as one of four brand new Vault Hunters – the ultimate treasure-seeking badasses of the Borderlands, each with deep skill trees, abilities and customization,” the game’s description reads.
The four Vault Hunters include the gunner Moze, the operative Zane, the siren Amara, and the beastmaster FL4K.
