Borderlands 3 from developer Gearbox Software and publisher Take-Two Interactive’s 2K label will be one of the major games of the year when it debuts on September 13 on the consoles and PC.

It has the same familiar goofy first-person shooter combat that is familiar to fans, who have purchased more than 48 million copies over the past decade. In this game, you return to the planet of Pandora, but make your way to new places like Eden-6, a swampy planet with dinosaurs.
