Borderlands 3 on Epic Games Store in September [Apr 03, 2019, 09:18 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
2K Games and Gearbox Software
confirm a recent
rumor with
the announcement of a September 13th release date for Borderlands 3,
also confirming speculation that the PC edition of the shooter sequel will be
exclusive to the Epic Games Store until a year from now. The
Xbox Wire has a write-up on the game and an
Official Announce Trailer,
and the game's listing on the
Microsoft Store suggests Windows and Xbox One cross-platform support,
showing "cross-platform co-op" as one of the game's capabilities. The press release includes box art and a couple of screenshots, but this is
still fairly preliminary, as more revelations are planned for next month: "For more details on the
story, characters, gear, and everything else you’ll find in Borderlands 3, tune
in on May 1 for the extended Gameplay Reveal Event livestream." There are plans for four different editions with escalating perks: A Standard Edition
($59.99 USD), a Deluxe Edition with bonus digital content ($79.99 USD), a Super
Deluxe Edition with a Season Pass ($99.99 USD, or $119.99 after September 17th),
and a Diamond Loot Chest Collector's Edition with all the preceding bonuses and
a bunch of physical goodies ($249.99 USD). Here's word on their partnerships with the Epic Games Store and AMD:
PC Gaming on Steroids in Collaboration with AMD and the Epic Games store:
Developed from the ground up with AMD, Borderlands 3 will take full advantage of the most powerful PC hardware available, and is optimized for top performance and incredible gaming experiences on AMD Radeon™ graphics cards and Ryzen™ CPUs.
At launch on September 13, Borderlands 3 will be available for PC exclusively through the Epic Games store. Borderlands 3 will be available on additional PC digital storefronts in April 2020.
“The PC gaming community has been an important part of the success of the Borderlands series, and we are excited to be partnering with Epic who recognize its worldwide popularity and share in our commitment to bring Borderlands 3 to this rapidly expanding audience,” said Ismailer. “Our mission, in addition to delivering the most engaging and captivating entertainment experiences, is to embrace new distribution platforms that will contribute to our effort to grow the audience for Borderlands 3.”
