Captain Scarlett and her Pirate’s Booty trailer for Borderlands 2 DLC

2K Games and Gearbox Software have DLC available for Borderlands 2. We’re told the launch if a special offer; currently selling for $29.99 (or the points value thereof) for $40 worth of content. It’s the first of four content campaigns promised to the game.

The Mechromancer, the fifth character class, is also now available – free to pre-order folk and $9.99 for the rest of us.

Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K, said in a press release;

“We’re so excited at how the Borderlands 2 experience continues to grow with Captain Scarlett and her Pirate’s Booty and the fifth playable character class, the Mechromancer,”

“With hours of new story-driven content to play through and an entirely new character to play as, gamers are getting a lot of additional value. The really exciting part is that we’re just getting started.”
