Published

on

The folks at Gearbox are doing a solid job at building up the hype for Borderlands 3, which arrives this September, and are going back to thei smash hit, Borderlands 2, to help build up some hype.

A brand new DLC for Borderlands 2 was officially rolled out during E3, and it sets the stage for the events that take place in Borderlands 3.

Commander Lilith and the Fight for Sanctuary is a new adventure that has Sanctuary under siege, a Vault map stoke, and a toxic gas that is poisoning Pandora.

What’s left of the Crimson Raiders, led by Lillith, take on Hector, a new villain who is aiming to take over the planet.

Commander Lilith and the Fight for Sanctuary

  • Loot Tier: Legendary weapons are lovely and all, but now there’s an even rarer and more powerful tier in town: Effervescent. This tier features high stats, special effects, and some entrancing rainbow textures.
  • Weapons and Equipment: With a new top loot tier comes new top loot, including super rare named firearms like a shotgun that fires…well, let’s just say there are ponies and rainbows and explosions.
  • Customization: Each of the six Borderlands 2 Vault Hunters gets a new head and skin, while the two vehicle types receive three new skins apiece. Stylin’!
  • Enemies and Bosses: The toxic gas seems to be doing strange things to Pandora’s bandit and beast populations, mutating them into deadly “Infected” forms. Expect exploding plant monsters, ferocious boss battles, and a new Raid Boss!
  • Areas: Shoot and loot your way through previously unexplored Pandoran locales, including the wreckage of a familiar space station and at least one forbidden research lab.
  • Level Cap: Pursue the new level cap of 80 (up from 72) and challenge yourself to achieve the two new Overpowered Levels, accessible via Digistruct Peak.

The DLC will be Free for a limited time, but players must own either Borderlands 2 or the Handsome Collection, which is also free for a limited time.

Overwatch 2

Blizzard is leveling up their efforts to thwart cheaters and misconduct within Overwatch 2, as the company aims to penalize players who are friends with cheaters and will amp up their monitoring of voice communications.

The company detailed this in the brand new update for its Defense Matrix Initiative, which is focused on curbing “gameplay sabotage, abusive chat, and cheating” stating their plan to come down on players who team up with cheaters, and more.

Blizzard admitted that cheating in Overwatch 2 is a problem and has “actioned over 50,000 accounts” since the game launched and starting in Season 3 they will be actively identifying players that purposely team up with players who are regularly flagged as cheaters, and will also face potential discipline.

Overwatch 2 will also have improved protection for streamers, as the issue of Stream sniping continues to be a problem, and in Season 3 they will be “introducing new streaming protection features that should be a huge step toward enabling content creators to share Overwatch 2 with their fans safely.”

Blizzard is encouraging players to report any disruptive or problematic behaviour in their matches.
