Borderlands 2 (English Edition)

Borderlands 2, the sequel to the critically acclaimed, best-selling role-playing shooter, returns with its unique style, charismatic characters, and addictive, non-stop cooperative loot-driven gameplay. An entirely new cast of characters, skills, environments, enemies, weapons, and equipment come together in an elaborate and interconnected story. Make new friends, arm yourselves to the teeth, and fight in cooperative matches in an adventure of revenge and redemption across the unexplored and unpredictable world of Pandora.

Borderlands 2 tells the story of four new Vault Hunters in their fight to free Pandora from the clutches of Handsome Jack, the cunning, charismatic, and despicable president of the Hyperion corporation. Players will shoot their way across Pandora to stop Jack from awakening an ancient and malevolent alien being known as "the Warrior." Along their journey, they will meet familiar faces from the first game, most notably the four original Vault Hunters (Roland, Lilith, Brick, and Mordecai). All of them, along with a plethora of new characters, will help players defeat Jack, destroy the Warrior, and save Pandora.

New stuff, extra stuff, and better stuff:

· New characters and new classes: The Assassin, Siren, and Soldier return alongside an all-new class: play as the Gunzerker and take advantage of his lethal skill, which allows him to dual-wield any weapon in the game. That's not all: you can also develop that skill to achieve things almost impossible to imagine with two weapons. Dual submachine guns? Cool! Dual rocket launchers? Why not! Dual sniper rifles? Sure, if that's your thing! Maybe something more tactical? You can choose from many classes!

· Dynamic online co-op, split-screen, and LAN: Share your adventures with friends online and over a local area network (LAN). Borderlands 2 includes an integrated system that lets you drop in and out of a campaign without needing to restart the game. And to top it all off, you can take your gear from one match to another!

· Interconnected world story: You will begin your adventure of revenge and redemption left for dead in the frozen tundra of Pandora. Uncover the evil plot surrounding the Hyperion corporation and face the culprit behind a grand deception of universal proportions: its infamous president, Handsome Jack. (Oh, and just so you know, he took credit for opening the Vault.)

· New "Badass" weapon system: It features a revolutionary operating system that encompasses millions of possible weapons. The variety and design of weapons in Borderlands 2 is dizzying, and you will also discover new ways to take on your enemies in Pandora. You can use fire, electricity, corrosive acid, and many other resources to fight against the forces of the Hyperion corporation.

· 87 bazillion... of everything: In addition to the new weapon system, your mouth will water at the generation of shields, grenades, alien artifacts, class mods, and much more. If you thought the original Borderlands had tons of stuff, just wait and see!

· New environments on Pandora: You will be able to hunt in completely new areas of Pandora, and they are more alive than ever! From arctic tundra to mysterious corrosive caverns, through dangerous grasslands, and much more. You'll be surprised at how unpredictable Pandora is around every corner!

· New enemies: In Borderlands 2, a whole new horde of enemies awaits to kill you. Huge ape-like Bullymongs, beastly marauding predators, and the mechanical army of Hyperion controlled by Handsome Jack are just some of the new enemies you will face on Pandora. You will have to come up with new strategies for every fight, as enemies now work with each other to stop you from advancing.
