2K and Gearbox Software are now offering preloads of the open beta client for Battleborn, their upcoming MOBA shooter, celebrating the news with a Bootcamp trailer showing off the game. Here's word:

The end of the universe isn’t pretty. Hell, here in the Solus System, we’re looking down the barrel of extinction. The Varelsi are consuming stars – whole stars! – while we’re fighting amongst ourselves over the few remaining table scraps of existence. And if we ever catch up with Rendain, that treacherous jerk will get what’s comin’ for selling out every sentient being left.

Nihilistic robots, dwarves, space luchadores, interstellar soldiers, penguin-piloted murder machines and lots of others, all teaming up to save what’s left of the Universe… that’s Battleborn.

For a bigger breakdown on what Battleborn is all about, check out the Battleborn Bootcamp Trailer!
