another world. She is searching for her lost friends. She has the
appearance of an angelic knight, and she fights to bring divine judgment
upon those who defy the Almighty’s will. Earnest, cheerful, and
straightforward, she is good friends with Lucifer.

In case you missed it, this episode featured an exclusive Let’s Play of Borderlands 3’s next campaign add-on – Guns, Love, and Tentacles: The Marriage of Wainwright & Hammerlock – as well as new details about the game’s next level cap increase, a new ECHOcast Extension event, the forthcoming Mayhem Mode 2.0 update, and more!
With Guns, Love, and Tentacles due out this Thursday,
March 26, Gearbox gave hosts Greg Miller and Fran Mirabella extended
hands-on time with the campaign add-on’s opening hour. The resulting Let’s Play
shows off new narrative details, enemy types, unique loot, and more. You can
see all the fresh footage right here. If you want to check out the add-on for yourself and don’t already own
the Super Deluxe Edition, be sure to pick up the Borderlands 3Season Pass or buy the expansion a la carte when it launches.
This Thursday also brings two free content
updates for all players: the next Borderlands 3 level cap
increase and a new ECHOcast Twitch Extension event. Starting Thursday, the new
maximum Vault Hunter level will be 57, up from 53. This will allow
players to earn four additional skill points and equip two capstone abilities
at once – a major bump in power for high-level players!

For Revenge of the Cartels, Nicholson shared
the very first details: Maurice returns to task players with taking out cartel
operatives throughout the Borderlands. Meet Maurice’s quota and he’ll send you
to the Mansion – a brand new location where an intense boss battle awaits. With
three different factions to fight, though, the combat you encounter in this
area will change with each playthrough. The event will last six weeks but can
be toggled off and on for the duration of the event, per fan feedback. For all
the details outlined on today’s episode covering both the Cartels event
and Mayhem Mode 2.0, just click right here.
