New Borderlands 3 Update Released Today: Game Features

The next big Borderlands 3 update is the Designer's Cut, which came out today, November 10th. At the beginning of the second year of content work, the game will introduce a whole set of changes, updates and a new mode for players to dive into and experiment. 

While exploring the main hall, players will receive a message from returned Borderlands 2 vault hunters Axton and Salvador, who are now hosting a new challenge that puts players in a battle zone filled with new enemies, bosses, and fresh loot.

The new map is located on Pandora, in a place called Stormblind Complex. Formerly Dahl's weapons factory, it has been turned into a large battle zone filled with treasure caches for the Arms Race. You enter a random area of ​​the map, and just like in a battle royale game, you must equip yourself with whatever equipment you can find. In addition to participating in the Arms Race without weapons and shields, your Vault Hunter will also have combat skills and perks disabled, meaning your survival depends on quick reflexes and the loot you can find.

The main loop of "Arms Race" is to arm yourself with new equipment, explore the facility to find valuable treasure chests, and eventually fight the boss located in the center of the map. You can fight him early, but with only starting gear that you can loot, you most likely won't stand a chance. While it draws heavily on battle royale imagery, Arms Race is not a competitive mode. You can play co-op with other players, but you won't fight other players. Instead, you'll face mercenaries, AI robots, and other tough enemies lurking around the map. But just like in games like Call of Duty: Warzone or Fortnite, there is also an element of danger in the environment. Stormblind is surrounded by a severe snowstorm, and getting anywhere within it will harm your hideout hunter, resulting in death if they stay out of the house for too long.

Interestingly, Arms Race looks like a traditional battle royale game with some influence from The Division's Dark Zone, which gives the feeling that you are behind enemy lines, where one death means the end of your run. Award for participation in the "Arms Race" is an exclusive piece of equipment that you can find that you will need to extract in order to keep it in your permanent inventory. One of the cool weapons we found was Torg's Hotfoot Teddy Flamethrower, which deals impressive damage to a group of enemies.
