Borderlands 3 Launch Trailer and Review Round-Up

Ā
Borderlands 3ās launch is just around the corner and the critics have released their verdict on Gearbox Softwareās latest entry in the looter-shooter series. In case you were wondering if the game is worth playing, especially if youāre just jumping into the series, maybe checking out what the critics have to say will help you make up your mind.
Before we go into the reviews, take a gander at the gameās launch trailer below:
Ā
PC GAMER ā 63/100
āAn endless font of bad jokes and cool guns in the seriesā most vapid story yet, Borderlands 3 skates by on watching numbers fly and goons explode.ā
ā James Davenport
IGN ā 9/10
āBorderlands 3 sticks to its guns and outdoes itself with an amazing arsenal of weapons, humor, and missions.ā
ā James Duggan
GAMESPOT ā 8/10
āThe gameās character-driven narrative acts as a satisfying finale for the loot-shooter franchise, and the new mechanics and featuresāespecially the reworked skill trees and weapon manufacturer effectsāgive you plenty of agency in how you want to play through it.ā
ā Jordan RamĆ©e
VENTURE BEAT ā 77/100
āBorderlands 3 reminds us that the market still exists for slower-paced single-player games with lots of loot and a variety of combat styles. Gearbox nails this.ā
ā Jason Wilson
DESTRUCTOID ā 9/10
āBorderlands 3 takes most of the good bits of Borderlands 2 and either rolls with them or improves upon them. It didnāt need to reinvent the wheel either, as Gearbox pretty much had the formula figured out the second time around.ā
ā Chris Carter
GAME INFORMER ā 8/10
āAn old formula executed well, Borderlands 3 rarely takes chances or strays from expectation. Gearbox treads familiar ground in this lengthy adventure, tossing out jokes and guns with equally wild abandon.ā
ā Matt Miller
FORBES ā 9/10
āBorderlands 3 was worth the wait and will be a fixture in this genre for years to come. And I think few fans of the last two will be disappointed when they get their hands on it at last.ā
ā Paul Tassi
US GAMER ā 4/5
āDespite the formula growing a bit stale, Gearbox has expanded upon it in the right way, resulting in a great Borderlands experience.ā
ā Mike Williams
And there you have it! It looks like the critics are divided when it comes to the gameās humour, but thatās to be expected. What they do seem to agree on is that if you loved the previous games, youāll most likely love the latest instalment. On the flip side, if you didnāt care for the series before, this new entry probably doesnāt sport enough changes to win you over.
Borderlands 3 is set to launch on September 13th for PC, Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
