BORDERLANDS 2 DLC INFO & RELEASE DATES

All New Borderlands 2 DLC Explained!

Alright so lets get right into this, Borderlands 2 developers Gearbox has recently announced a few new DLC installments they have planned for the upcoming months.
I have also put together a really great video which fully explains all the new DLC and updates which you can watch HERE

4th DLC "Bunkers & Badasses"

At the recent PAX panel they have revealed news about the 4th upcoming DLC that was said to be released in June and to be included with the Season Pass. Though not much is announced on this yet it is rumored that the next campaign DLC will be called "Bunkers and Badasses" as this is the name of the bored game Tiny Tina and the rest of the vault hunters were playing in the preview, this is also a reference to Dungeons & Dragons. This is said to be released sometime in June.


Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack

Also announced was the new "Upgrade Pack" which will be for the most part free other then the "Level Cap Increase" Thats right you will now be able to level up pass the current max of level 50 to a new 11 levels which will max out at level 61. This level cap increase will be free for season pass holders or cost only $5 for everyone else. Also to accompany this upgrade pack DLC will be the addition of a 3rd playthrough with tougher enemies and better loot. and speaking of better loot there is also going to be a new weapon tier added which will be called "pearlescent" which were a weapon tier from the original Borderlands found in the 3rd DLC "The Secret Armory of General Knoxx" This "Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack" is to be released on April 2nd.


Not enough space to carry all this new loot and weapons?

Not to fear, Along with all this amazing new additions and DLC they will also be making a Black Market update to the game which will allow for more upgrades and SDU packs to be purchased from Earl which is found in-game at Sanctuary. This will also be free and included with the above Upgrade Pack DLC and to be released April 2nd
Quote from AdamF on the Gearbox Forums
"There will be inventory/backup/storage increases in the update (Free update). More ammo SDU's will be available in the black market along with eridium maximums increased."




New Vault Hunter DLC "Krieg The Psycho"

The final DLC announced was a new playable character who goes by the name of Krieg. Krieg is a Psycho and will carry an axe type weapon which can be thrown at enemies. This will be the 6th playable Vault Hunter. It is said it will cost $9.99 and be released sometime in May.



So there you have it, allot of new "Borderlands 2" DLC information and what seems to be allot of great dlc coming in the next few months. I personally cant wait to get my hands on all of this stuff and go hunting for some new legendary weapons and kill some bandits.
I have put together a video which will explain in further detail everything here with some gameplay with it, enjoy.
