From the creators of Borderlands comes a new first-person shooter for every kind of badass.
The universe teeters on the brink of extinction and only the most powerful Battleborn can stop it. This band of badasses will slice swords through enemies, fire massive machine guns, sling powerful spells and much more! Command 25 unique heroes. Fight alone or alongside friends. Play story missions or mow down foes in competitive multiplayer matches.
Rendain and his evil army must not be allowed to destroy the last star. Do you and your friends have what it takes to save it?
Story Mode
Battleborn’s Story Mode is a narrative experience playable in a single-player capacity, as well as cooperatively by up to five friends via splitscreen or online. The Story Mode is modular, allowing players to choose which missions to enjoy next. The modular structure of Story Mode also allows players to replay missions for the chance to earn better loot.
25 Playable Characters
Battleborn has a deep and diverse roster of 25 playable heroes, each with its own personality and equipped with unique weapons and powers. An accelerated character growth system, known as the Helix System, allows players to level up a character from 1 to 10 in a single story mission or competitive multiplayer match
Competitive Multiplayer
Battleborn’s team-based competitive multiplayer action can be experienced by up to 10 players online in 5v5 matches and will include three distinct modes:
Incursion: Teams of heroes defend their base from waves of AI-controlled minions while working together, alongside their own minions, to destroy their opponents’ base;
Devastation: Teams of heroes face off in a fast-paced death match and must capture and hold objectives on the map to win;
Meltdown: Teams of heroes protect their minions as they march to their death at the center of the map. Points are scored for minions who throw themselves into the incinerator, and the team with the most points wins.

Keeps getting cheaper but not any better. The way player numbers are going in this online only game 25 playable characters will soon be one each. Stats show a low of 62 players on 21st Nov.

I agree with you, I think it's a good game, but it had no chance vs Overwatch. Silly to release it near the same time and now the player base is struggling, so they're selling it for 90% off, which is annoying those players who are still there.
Free to play seems like the only option to save it, and I think it would do quite well in that market.

Karma for Colonial Marines. That piece of garbage sold well thanks to Gearbox's lies, so it's extremely satisfying to see their "biggest game ever" fall flat on its face. :smiley:

tempted to buy it, even if it goes f2p atleast it would mean you have the characters and won't have to buy them one buy one with the currency they will probably bring with it

I played the beta of this, wouldn't tempt me to buy this game at any price. Also why do people compare this game with Overwatch they're totally different game genres!
