Gearbox even made an entire game, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel devoted to exploring one of the most complex and interesting characters present in Borderlands 2: Handsome Jack. Everything from the incredible voice acting, to the quest descriptions, to the characters themselves, makes it difficult to describe any of them in a single sentence it's all a lot more complex and serious than the goofy comic book style makes it appear.

Similarly, the exceptional characters, writing, and world-building present in Borderlands 2, and especially its spectacular four story-based DLCs, will also soon be in the same state as the original game unless Gearbox allows these Borderlands characters to appear in other games. The first Borderlands even got a recent remaster in the form of Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition to solid reviews as the studio realized that when games begin to age, they become less and less accessible to a newer audience. Gearbox has such well-known and iconic IPs to its name such as Duke Nukem, Brothers in Arms, and Borderlands. Gearbox Software, like Bethesda, understands this desire for nostalgia-fueled fun within the gaming community, which is likely why it is releasing a full game, with a loaded cast, all about one of Borderlands 2's best DLC. If the recent announcement of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim being re-released for the seventh time doesn't prove that there is still an incredible appetite for decade-old video games, then nothing will.

Not only does Tiny Tina's Wonderlands prove that Gearbox is more than happy to go through its back catalog, but it also provides an opportunity for Gearbox to expand its Borderlands worldbuilding. Gearbox is clearly eager to relive this period as seen with its newest upcoming title, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, which is itself a spin-off of another great Borderlands 2 DLC: Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep. The Borderlands 2 expansion, entitled Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty, was released in 2012 when the Borderlands franchise was at its height, similar to the Pirates of the Caribbean. With the recent crossover of Captain Jack Sparrow from Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean joining Sea of Thieves, it seems only logical for another well-known pirate to also join Rare's swashbuckling adventure: Captain Scarlett from Borderlands 2.
