This bite-sized Headhunters Pack seasonal-themed DLC had you guiding your favorite Borderlands 2 vault hunter to the snowy wonderland of Gingerton. It's a non-denominational winter celebration with excellent humor and a hard-rocking holiday-inspired boss-fight soundtrack. The rewards are a little sparse compared to other DLC, but the joy of the holidays made up for it. The first campaign DLC for Borderlands 2 didn't offer much in the way of refreshingly new content, but it didn't really have to: it was basically just more Borderlands 2, and that's all anyone wanted anyway.
While its story and enemies weren't terribly exciting, it was a great excuse to hunt loot and introduced new raid bosses and the Seraph Crystals currency used to buy powerful new Seraph weapons. It does a nice job of finishing up the Headhunter packs, but it's the promise of rare loot with each Son of Crawmerax victory that gives this DLC a spot on this list.
In this. Ned, and what a journey it was. After a surprising success, people were hungry for more Borderlands, and Zombie Island delivered, bringing new quests, enemies, and of course, that sweet, sweet loot, all in a fun Halloween wrapper that helped set it apart from the main storylines. Locations Missions by campaign Missions by location.
Non-player characters Enemies Bosses. Borderlands 3. Should I do the headhunters first or the story driven DLC first? In that case, am I not a too high level for the DLC's? And after that go to UVHM and do it again? The narrative features a charmingly goofy premise involving the lovable hostess trying to wed two people from rival gangs, making for a zany BL2 -style reimagining of Romeo and Juliet. The content features amusing missions that include retrieving babies, gathering love potions, and drinking Whiskey.
The gameplay doesn't offer a ton of new features but resorts to reusing various old assets while relying on the off-the-wall premise to carry the experience, which it usually does. The first of the Headhunter Packs, a Halloween-themed romp of epic proportions, ends up being one of the strongest and most memorable.
The content is slim—featuring only one major area and a couple of missions—but what little does exist is rich and enjoyable. This pack, released in October , features a horror-tinged environment called Hallowed Hollow. While the side mission falls back on pretty standard fetch quest objectives, the spooky enemies and eerie landscapes help make for a thrilling experience.
The main boss of the DLC, the Pumpkin Kingpin, is both fun and relatively simple to take down and yields a pumpkin head that you can plop onto your character as a wearable head upon completion.
Marcus—your friendly arms dealer with the distinctly thick Russian accent—is the star of this one as he seeks out a culprit for his missing shipment of guns. Much of the content is recycled, but most of the enemy designs are cool and imaginative. The icy environment—which is crawling with creepy murderous snowmen—makes for one delightfully wild experience. The missions prove exciting and the final boss showdown will test your BL2 skills, but the reward is worth it.
While there's certainly not much this DLC pack does wrong, it doesn't do much to stand out, either. The swamp and jungle biomes aren't all that intriguing, and neither is the basic narrative or the many of the fetch quest-y side missions.
Still, there are a number of redeemable qualities to this that go beyond just the extra 10 hours of gameplay it provides. How to start it: Fast-travel to Wam Bam Island When to play it: After everything else Level: Between 15 and 35 on first playthrough, balanced for your level after that. Normally the beach episode is an excuse for a certain kind of fanservice. The Borderlands equivalent is less about bikinis and more about rewarding long-term player commitment with a last hurrah for its world.
The dialogue's full of callbacks and references too, the Borderlands series being nostalgic for itself in a gleefully self-indulgent way. The headhunter packs were smaller DLC stories designed as budget additions to Borderlands 2, each themed around a holiday. Of the others How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day has some good loot though it feels pretty slight, and Mad Moxxi's Wedding Day Massacre has a fun story about helping feuding hillbilly clans settle their differences.
It's worth it for your True Vault Hunter Mode replay, because otherwise you'll hit the level 50 cap well before the end of the storyline, especially if you're diverting into DLC missions along the way. It builds to a conclusion that bridges the final gap between the Pre-Sequel and Borderlands 2, kind of like the finale of Star Wars: Rogue One. Fans will lap it up. If you hate Claptrap you should totally skip Claptastic Voyage, but if you like the little guy you'll appreciate this.
