Release Date: September 18, 2012
A first-person shooter with cRPG features and a sequel to the 2009’s hit. Gearbox Software studio once again managed the development, with the publishing of 2K Games company. The game’s story is set some time after the events of first part. This time the players will face Handsome Jack, a self-proclaimed dictator of Pandora.
Borderlands 2 for PC, PS3 and etc. is the sequel of a successful game from 2009 which received an acclaim from both critics and players. The second installment in the series was created by Gearbox Software Studios, and again it combines first-person shooter with RPG elements of games like Diablo. Just like the previous game, this one too includes a co-op mode.
In the second part of the series you return to Pandora planet to see its previously unexplored regions that hide many secrets of the Borderlands universe. The story takes off shortly after the first one left. This time the bad gay is Handsome Jack, who, after claiming credit for the heroes’ achievements from the first game for himself, purchased the largest weapon manufacturer, Hyperion company, and declared himself the dictator of Pandora. Our aim is to curb his tyranny, which is, however, presented in a humorous way.
In the game you can meet the old heroes, but this time Mordecai, Lilith, and Brick appear only as side characters. The developers did not take the easy way out, so they prepared four new characters to choose from. They are: Salvador, Maya, Zero, and Axton. Together with new protagonists come new character classes. The Gunzerker can use two weapons at the same time, and takes the role of a tank. The Commando can be assisted by an automatic turret, which can be developed and gain access to new abilities. When it comes to the Assassin, he specializes in taking enemies by surprise – he sets traps and generally keeps low profile. There is also the Siren class in Borderlands 2, which, although existed in the previous game, now received completely new skills.
Weapon system – the distinctive feature of the first game – was completely remade. The developers from Gearbox Software created all weapons from scratch, and ascribed them to particular manufacturers. Unlike in the first game, in Borderlands 2 for PC, PS3 and etc. guns not only differ in statistics, but also in the look and way they work. Also, the game’s world was substantially modified. Pandora no longer consists of desert landscapes only. Instead, a variety of environments, such as cold tundra, jungles, or rocky hills, are present in the game.
Still, the pinnacle of Borderlands 2 for PC, PS3 and etc. is the co-op mode. It allows four people to play together online or via local network. The creators designed gameplay so that the presence of other players opened access to new tactics. Some of the challenges are available only for groups.

June 9, 2019

Expansion
June 25, 2013
Action
The fourth and final DLC for Borderlands 2, a post-apocalyptic action game developed by Gearbox Software that combines elements of FPS and RPG genre. The key character in the Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep expansion is a crazy thirteen-year old girl who loves explosives. The fans of the series should know her from the basic version of Borderlands 2 as well as from the Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage expansion. The main theme of this expansion pack is a meta-session of table-top RPG game, Bunkers & Badasses – the local variation of Dungeons & Dragons. Tiny Tina plays the role of the dungeon master and the characters known from the first installment of Borderlands – Brick, Mordecai and Lilith – the session. During the session Tina spontaneously changes the rules of the game, including character names, boss attributes or location layouts. Thanks to that the adventures in Borderlands 2 became unpredictable. The battles are of course played in a form typical for the series, from a first-person perspective.

The third additional content pack for Borderlands 2, the first-person perspective shooter with RPG elements developed by Gearbox Software. The game invites the players to an anything but friendly planet Pandora, combining science-fiction, humor and action-filled gameplay. In Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt DLC the player goes on a hunt with Sir Hammerlock by his side. The exotic beasts that live in the unexplored Aegrus continent, which consists of a bunch of new locations, are to be the player’s prey. The hunt quickly transforms into a more serious adventure connected to a tribe that worships Handsome Jack. By doing so, the tribe endangers the whole planet. The expansion offers, among other things, new story missions, side quests, challenges, a swamp hovercraft, monsters, weapons and other items. During the hunt, one can encounter giant insects as well as the said tribe, whose shamans are able to their more aggressive kinsmen. A special boss awaits the strongest groups of players. The Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt expansion is intended for experienced players – it is best to complete it after finishing the basic campaign.
Expansion
November 20, 2012
Action
The second major DLC for Borderlands 2, a post-apocalyptic first-person shooter with RPG elements developed by Gearbox Software. The plot of Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage revolves around a new Vault which requires a special ritual to be opened. In order to perform it, a champion of Pandora must be chosen by means of a brutal tournament on a special arena. Mr. Torgue’s Campaign of Carnage offers new locations to visit and numerous additional missions; however, the core of the expansion are spectacular battles in which the players have to defeat several subsequent waves of increasingly powerful enemies. Apart from remastered versions of the already known foes, we also fight new ones, including unique bosses such us the psychopathic Pyro Pete, Motor Mama, and Badassaurus Rex that resembles a cross between a tank and a mechanical dinosaur. As an award for victories, we can unlock new weapons which we buy with a special currency. Some of the known characters, including Tannis, Moxxi, and Tiny Tina, make an appearance in the expansion.

Game Ratings for Borderlands 2 Video Game.
Eurogamer: 9 / 10 by Christian Donlan
Compared to the dull, empty-eyed stoicism of so many triple-A games, it's still a welcome blast of idiot humour, too.
Forbes: 9 / 10 by Daniel Nye Griffiths
Borderlands 2 is not perfect - but it is consistently excellent, and deserves praise both as a game and a great piece of progressive development.
Destructoid: 8.5 / 10 by Allistair Pinsof
If you are up for a good laugh while shooting things in the face, Borderlands 2 is a worthy game to add to your collection. Soon enough, you'll see numbers popping above people's heads in real life and will feel compelled to search every Porta Potty on the street for cash.
