Borderlands 2 Launch Trailer Released
The time is now to take out Handsome Jack. Gather up your friends as you run rampant through the world collecting bazillions of loot and guns in an effort to save Pandora from the evil grips of the Hyperion Corporation.
The Borderlands 2 launch trailer is now live! My favorite part s easily the fist bump between Lilith and Maya. Also, Roland looks awesome in a beret. I’m also digging that Handsome Jack think he’s the hero and the players are the bad guys. It will be interesting to see where Gearbox goes with that. We were told on Community Day that some of the vault hunters were on Pandora for bad reasons.
