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 assist 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.

Miscellaneous Features
- Character Customization - A variety of skins and heads are available as drops from bosses, certain enemies and as mission, challenge, and levelling rewards. They feature varying grades of rarity and when found are unlocked account wide, e.g., finding a Lawbringer skin while playing as the Enforcer will make that skin available on other Lawbringer saves, whether new or existing. Head customizations for the Flagtrap class, due to the Claptrap unit not possessing a head, change the appearance of the entire character, such as placing the Flagtrap in a garbage can or giving it jetpack aesthetics.
- One Point Wonders - "Game changer" skills that can change available options and gameplay style while only requiring a small investment of a single skill point.
- Moonstone - Commonly used as a currency for the Black Market, the Grinder, and Moxx-tails. Moonstones are also used to unlock Moonstone treasure chests.
- The Grinder - Used to combine 3 items of the same quality to create higher quality items. The Grinder has a chance to give Luneshine to a weapon when combined. Moonstones can be added to any Grinder combination, ensuring the best possible outcome for the used items including a chance of adding Luneshine to the created weapon.
- Luneshine - Luneshine is an additional feature that an item may possess, and can be found on items throughout the game.
- Badass Rank - Completing challenges increases Badass Rank, and the harder or higher level the challenge is, the more Badass Rank is given upon completion. Earning enough rank awards a Badass Token, redeemable for stat increases that apply to all characters of a profile. Badass ranks are now visible to the other players in a co-op game. You require a Badass Rank of 2500 or higher to get the Excalibastard.
Trivia
- The moon is named Elpis after the Greek personification and spirit of hope which is the last thing to be freed from Pandora's Box.
