Borderlands 3: Launch trailer and first reviews
2K Games has released the launch trailer for Borderlands 3, which will become available on Friday. Meanwhile, the first reviews appear online.
The launch trailer for Borderlands 3 lasts a couple of minutes and is accompanied by Queen’s Seven Seas of Rhye. It gives an idea of what players should expect from Gearbox Software’s new ” looter shooter, “even if it doesn’t show sequences taken directly from gameplay.
Meanwhile, the first reviews of Borderlands 3 have come out, not without controversy. The producer 2K Games has decided to send the review code of the game only to the American newspapers, while in Europe, it has been granted to very few lucky people. In the world of video games, this normally hides some kind of flaw in the very first versions of the game.
In Borderlands 3, it will be possible to explore new worlds, alone or in a cooperative, as one of the four new hunters of Criptacel shading. Still, as can be verified from the game footage, everything is more detailed, and shadows and illuminations are more defined.
The spaceship will act as a central hub that will allow you to configure the characters, trade the objects, and choose the planet to visit and assault. Compared to the past, the skill system changes slightly: players can upgrade one of the Crypt hunters by unlocking new active skills, while passive ones modify and intensify the behavior of the former, improving the effectiveness of the personified character.
In Borderlands 3, the main characters will change, but the story will pick up from where we left it, marking the return of characters known as Lilith and Zero, among others. It also promises greater dynamism, with the possibility, among others, of shooting while sliding.
Of course, the Loot remains the heart of the game experience: Gearbox makes it known that it has worked a lot on this aspect to improve the feeling of gratification of the player following his raids on the game world of Sanctuary III.
The first reviews are generally positive, ranging from 9 of IGN and Destructoid to 8 of GameInformer. But there are a couple of more critical editors: those of PC Gamer (6.3) and GamesBeat (7.7) who complain about the presence of bugs and the inability to innovate after the previous chapters.
