Guns, Love, and Tentacles: The Marriage of Wainwright & Hammerlock

The second expansion of Borderlands 3 has also been announced and will follow the marriage of  Sir Alistair Hammerlock and Wainwright Jakobs.

Players will be making their way to the ice planet of Xylourgos.

With frozen waters, and have thinned out all but the most vicious wildlife, and the eerie town of Cursehaven.

You’ll be joined by Gaige throughout this entire expansion, and that’s not all. Here are some more features of the upcoming expansion.

• Reunite with old friends and team up with some eerie new characters to help true love triumph over eldritch horror;
• Confront bloodthirsty enemies and formidable bosses, including alien beasts, hideously mutated occultists, and a clan of cold-blooded bandits;
• Delve into the disturbing and occasionally daft backstories of cursed townfolk in a host of spine-tingling side missions;
• Arm your Vault Hunter with some of the deadliest gear in the galaxy, including a trove of additional Legendaries and some supremely powerful Class Mods; and,
• Flaunt your sense of style with a slew of new cosmetic items, from Vault Hunter Heads & Skins to interactive Room Decorations and all-new Vehicle Skins.

Release Date

The expansion is coming out on March 27 in Asia and is included with the Borderlands 3 Season Pass and Super Deluxe Edition, just like Moxxi’s Heist of The Handsome Jackpot.

In addition to the second expansion announcement, Gearbox also revealed the first concept art for the third campaign, which you can check out below.

Guardian Takedown

The second Takedown will come out in May, and just like the first takedown, players will be introduced to some of the most challenging content yet.

This standalone mission is themed after the mysterious Eridians and will feature new bosses, gear and cosmetics.

The difficulty will scale to the size of the player party by default.

However, if you want to experience the Takedown in its true form, you can select “True Takedown Mode,” which tunes the difficulty for a party of four fully leveled-up Vault Hunters regardless of party size.
