Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel

Story
Set between Borderlands and Borderlands 2, four all-new character classes fight alongside Handsome Jack, witnessing his transformation into the ruthless tyrant people loved to hate in Borderlands 2, and assisting with the rise of the Hyperion Corporation. The signature shoot n’ loot gameplay of the Borderlands series expands with the addition of low-gravity and oxygen-powered jetpack combat, the icy Cryo elemental damage type, the deadly laser weapon class, and new vehicles to help explore the diverse lunar landscape of Elpis, Pandora's moon.

 * Athena the Gladiator - A former Atlas soldier turned mercenary in The Secret Armory of General Knoxx.
 * Wilhelm the Enforcer - The Hyperion engineer and personal bodyguard to Handsome Jack of Borderlands 2.
 * Nisha the Lawbringer - The Sheriff of Lynchwood and Handsome Jack's girlfriend from Borderlands 2.
 * Claptrap the Fragtrap - Formerly the Interplanetary Ninja Assassin Claptrap, militarized by Hyperion.
