It’s been 10 years since Borderlands first exploded onto our Xboxes, and now with the latest instalment Gearbox are promising more, bigger and better – including way, way more guns.

The action this time moves from Pandora out into the wider galaxy, with different planets to visit via a spaceship ‘hub’, while the series’ trademark humour and bright visual style is very much still in evidence. Read our in-depth hands-on gameplay preview, along with insights from Gearbox’s development team, in the latest OXM.
