Borderlands 3 is now available
on Steam
with a 50% discount for the next week, offering another way to buy the newest
installment in Gearbox's action/RPG/shooter series.
This post covers the news and announces that this marks the beginning of
cross-play for the Windows edition:
The wait is finally over, Vault
Hunters! Borderlands 3 is now available on Steam, giving even more PC players
the opportunity to shoot and loot their way across the exotic worlds of the
Borderlands universe. Better still, Borderlands 3 is available at a special
launch price on Steam for a limited time!
Today also marks the launch of PC Cross-Play, which allows you to play the Steam
version of Borderlands 3 with players on other PC platforms. Thanks to some
exciting new SHiFT matchmaking functionality, Borderlands 3 PC players can add
friends to their Friends Lists, join co-op parties, and play together online
regardless of which PC platform each player is using.
The Steam version of Borderlands 3 includes all free updates and add-on content
to date, including Takedown at the Maliwan Blacksite. Those who purchase the
Borderlands 3 Season Pass or Super Deluxe Edition can also access the latest
campaign expansion, Moxxi's Heist of The Handsome Jackpot. Additionally, on
March 26, Super Deluxe Edition and Season Pass holders across all platforms can
dive into Borderlands 3's second paid campaign add-on for a surprisingly
dangerous engagement party in Guns, Love, and Tentacles: The Marriage of
Wainwright & Hammerlock.
And of course, all players can look forward to future free content updates and
events, like Mayhem Mode 2.0 and the Revenge of the Cartels seasonal event, both
of which are coming in April.
We’re excited to welcome all new Vault Hunters to the worlds of Borderlands
3—happy looting!
