2K and Gearbox Software announced today that
Borderlands®: The Handsome Collection™, is now
available in North America for Xbox One, the all-in-one games and
entertainment system from Microsoft and the PlayStation®4 computer
entertainment system, bringing the critically-acclaimed series to
next-gen consoles for the first time. The Handsome
Collection will be available internationally on March 27,
2015.
Borderlands: The Handsome Collection bundles
Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel and all
downloadable content for both titles* including the all-new add-on
pack for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, Claptastic Voyage
and Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2. The Handsome
Collection is currently over $100 of value on prior gen
consoles, but now with the high performance and graphical fidelity
of next-gen consoles for $59.99. This value packed collection also
features four-player split screen, a franchise first, allowing four
friends to play together on a single screen as well as cross save
functionality, giving veteran Vault Hunters the ability to transfer
their saves** and bring their leveled up characters from their
prior gen console to next-gen.
“The Borderlands franchise continues to be successful,
selling-in nearly 23 million units worldwide to date,” said
Christoph Hartmann, president of 2K. “New players can
experience the complete story of Handsome Jack’s rise and fall
in one package, while fans of the franchise can bring their Vault
Hunters with them to the next-gen consoles and pick up right where
they left off.”
Also available starting today are Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel
Claptastic Voyage and Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack
2. In this campaign add-on, Handsome Jack has found something
ludicrously powerful inside Claptrap’s mind and digitizes the Vault
Hunters to go in and retrieve it. In Claptastic Voyage,
players will visit all-new locations, make new friends, loot never
before seen weapons and more. The Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade
Pack 2 is also included and raises the level cap to 70, giving
each playable character 10 new levels, with 10 new skill points to
earn.
The Claptastic Voyage and Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack
2 is the fourth add-on pack for Borderlands: The
Pre-Sequel and is the final pack included in the
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Season Pass. All four add-on
content packs in the Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel Season Pass
are also available individually for $9.99. Like all Season
Pass add-on content for Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel,
Claptastic Voyage and Ultimate Vault Hunter Upgrade Pack 2
will be included in Borderlands: The Handsome
Collection.
The Handsome Collection is rated M for Mature by the
ESRB. For more information, please visit the official

About Borderlands 2
Developed by Gearbox Software, Borderlands
2 has sold-in over 11 million units worldwide, won more
than 55 editorial awards and is the critically acclaimed sequel to
the breakout original that invented a new genre, the FPS/RPG hybrid
known as “shooter-looter.” Borderlands 2 features
genre defining characters and skill trees, diverse environments,
missions and enemies, as well as weapons and equipment with more
personality than ever before. Four friends can team up online or
split-screen to journey through the huge open world of Pandora to
take down the notorious Handsome Jack and his corrupt Hyperion
Corporation and experience the iconic story that takes place after
the events of Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel.
About Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is the latest entry in
the critically acclaimed Borderlands franchise that was
co-developed by Gearbox Software and 2K Australia. Borderlands:
The Pre-Sequel continues the franchise’s tradition of
industry-leading co-op, allowing up to four players to experience
the signature low-gravity, shoot ‘n’ loot gameplay on Pandora’s
moon. Featuring four distinct playable character classes armed with
powerful laser and icy Cryo weapons, players will battle against an
array of fearsome enemies. Taking place before the events of
Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is a great
introduction into the franchise, while showcasing Handsome Jack’s
transformation into the ruthless tyrant fans loved to hate in
Borderlands 2.

and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel as of March 24, 2015. Xbox Live or
PlayStation®Network account as well as Internet connection is
