Gearbox unloaded both barrels today, as the Borderlands 3 news is plentiful

2K and Gearbox have announced the next expansion for Borderlands 3, and the news that the game will be coming to Steam on March 13, plus a bunch more. First up, check out the trailer for the next expansion ‘Guns, Love and Tentacles: The Marriage of Wainwright & Hammerlock’

The description for the new expansion is insane, which for Borderlands is saying something. Sir Alistair Hammerlock and Wainwright Jakobs are finally tying the knot, and they want you to come celebrate their upcoming nuptials on the ice planet of Xylourgos. Its frozen wastes have thinned out all but the most vicious wildlife, and the eerie town of Cursehaven – where you've all agreed to meet – is located beneath the colossal carcass of a fallen Vault Monster.

As if this ice world's biting cold and vicious wildlife weren’t unwelcoming enough, a band of creepy occultists who worship the Vault Monster's carcass are hellbent on breaking up the betrothed partners. You'll have to fight back the forces of otherworldly evil if Wainwright and Hammerlock are to have their happily ever after. Luckily, the most badass wedding planner in the galaxy has your back: Gaige, a fugitive Vault Hunter (and returning fan-favorite character) who's inseparable from her robot BFF Deathtrap

Gearbox of course, couldn’t let people go with just that, they also released a tease for the 3rd expansion, which is set to release in Winter, the image below is what we have, along with the two words Outlaws and Dinosaurs.

Finally, they also detailed the next few months of events and content coming to the game, the ‘Spring’ roadmap covers March through until May, check it out. The expansion will require money, either for a single buy, or that of the Season Pass, owners of it, have access to it already. The items in Red, are free to all players.
