With the Borderlands 3 season pass content coming to an end with the Krieg-focused final expansion, a second season of content has been rumored and requested for some time. Today, Randy Pitchford has added fuel to that fire, tweeting out a request for fan feedback on the next batch of Borderlands 3 content.
Though Pitchford does stress that this content is not guaranteed to come, the rabid fanbase of Borderlands 3 would certainly love to see more done with the game beyond 2020. While more events like Revenge of the Cartels and the batch of events to celebrate Borderlands 3‘s first birthday would be welcome, some meatier expansions would be even better to help keep the game alive in the future. Thankfully, Pitchford seemed to tease that today.
Asking fans what they would like to see if another “premium add-on” was made in the future, the Gearbox CEO was met with countless replies. In these fan responses, Bunkers and Badasses 2 was mentioned, a popular concept given how little Tiny Tina was seen in the main story of Borderlands 3. A sequel to the Borderlands 2 expansion Assault on Dragon Keep seems like a great way to rectify the lack of Tina and please more fans. Regardless, Pitchford seems to be hinting at one pack as opposed to a full, second season pass for Borderlands 3.
Even more responses came in calling for DLC characters, even though Gearbox said last year that DLC characters are not in Borderlands 3‘s post-launch plans. Perhaps with more content coming that outlook will change and players will see a new vault hunter to get their hands on. The Mechromancer and Psycho packs proved incredibly popular for the previous Borderlands game, greatly adding to its longevity.
One more thing to note about Pitchford’s post is the mention of a possible “(smaller) set of premium add-ons”. This comment immediately brings to mind the headhunter packs from Borderlands 2, which were hour long quests added to the game after the season pass content had all been released. These packs focused mainly on holidays, however, with only the final headhunter pack breaking that formula.
It would be interesting to see how smaller pieces of content would do in Borderlands 3, as many players would likely prefer another large expansion over anything else. It is not out of the realm of possibility given last year’s release of Commander Lilith and the Fight for Sanctuary for Borderlands 2. Regardless of whether the next expansions are small or large, though, it seems like Borderlands 3 will be seeing paid content drops beyond this year. Chances of next-gen versions of Borderlands 3 are also incredibly high, ensuring it lives long past 2020.
Borderlands 3 is now available for PC, PlayStation 4, Stadia, and Xbox One.
