Borderlands 2 is an action role-playing first-person shooter, that was developed by Gearbox Software and first released on the Playstation 3, Xbox 360, Mac OSX and PC on September 18, 2012. It is the sequel to the first Borderlands that was released in 2009. It was later ported to the Playstation Vita (May 13, 2014), Linux (September 30, 2014) and then to the Playstation 4 and Xbox One, as part of The Handsome Collection (March 27, 2015).

The characters of Borderlands 2.
The game utilizes similar mechanics to the first one, with players completing a campaign made up of central missions, with 100+ optional missions also available, using one of four Vault Hunters, all brand new to the game (six with DLC). Players of the original will still find the online cooperative gameplay, tons and tons of randomly generated loot and the same RPG elements in building characters. Borderlands 2 was built in Unreal Engine 3 and uses PhysX technology.

The follow-up to the 2009 first-person shooting sensation, Borderlands 2 marks a return to Pandora, the setting of the first game, where the player will find all-new characters, weapons, enemies, equipment and loot.

Just as with the previous game, Borderlands 2 supports four-player online co-op as well as two-player split screen local co-op on the console versions.
