Review of the game Borderlands Online

While the head of the Gearbox Software studio, Randy Pitchford, tickles the nerves of the fans of the popular Borderlands franchise with promises to announce the third part, the Asian developers decided that it was a sin not to use the vast locations of the famous universe and, without wasting time, set about creating an online version. And in early 2015, Shanda Games and 2K Games, under the patronage of Gearbox Software, which even organized its branch in Shanghai, announced a closed beta testing of "Borderlands Online," scheduled for 2015.

As far as we know at MMOTOP.ORG, the game genre is a hybrid of MMORPG and the classic single-player Borderlands. The payment model will be shareware. At the moment, the release of the game is focused only on the domestic gaming market of China, where various online novelties are still perceived with unwavering enthusiasm.

In Borderlands Online, the player is given a choice of 4 characters: Mercenary, Windhunter, Dragon, and Firecharming. There is also the possibility of customizing the appearance. The game is built on popular Action / MO principles, such as Vindictus. The world is divided into sectors, each of which has a hub city, and from these cities, you can go to various dungeons. Yes, in the online version, there will be no open world where you can freely travel. Cities are social hubs where players can do their business, like crafting, trading, and finding a group. PvP in Borderlands Online is presented in the arena format.

The game is expected to be released in China in 2015, with no information about other regions yet.
