Today during a panel at SXSW at the Nintendo Gaming Expo, Borderlands 2 developer Gearbox has revealed a new vault hunter is coming to Borderlands 2.
“Deep beneath Pandora, an experiment has escaped,” a teaser for the DLC announced, revealing a silhouette of the new character decimating enemies. “Bandits beware, a new vault hunter is coming. More mayhem awaits.”
Details for the second add-on character were little to none, much like the Pandora wasteland; however, the teaser they showed everyone leads us to believe the new character is melee-focused. Gearbox franchise director Matt Armstrong wouldn’t reveal the exact release for the DLC during the panel but confirmed the upcoming content will be included as part of the Borderlands 2 season pass and added, “DLC is announced on a very tight schedule, and I don’t think you’ll have to wait long until you see that character.”
Stay tuned for more details and SXSW updates!
