Borderlands 3 now available in the Epic Store for macOS

Developed by Gearbox Software and published by 2K games, Borderlands 3 is a sequel to 2012's Borderlands 2 and the fourth title in the Borderlands shooter series by Gearbox.

Borderlands 3 is a multi-genre game, with aspects of action role-playing games as well as first-person shooters. Completing quests, side missions, and killing enemies will reward players with both experience and loot. Players will level up and unlock new abilities as the progress through both single- or multiplayer modes.

The entry on the Epic store page reads that "the original shooter-looter returns, packing bazillions of guns and a mayhem-fueled adventure! Blast through new worlds & enemies and save your home from the most ruthless cult leaders in the galaxy."

Borderlands 3 has been generally well received since its launch in September of this year. Publications like IGN and Destructoid rated it highly, with a score of 9 out of 10, while Gamespot and Game Informer gave it an 8 out of 10. Metacritic scores across the three launch platforms average out to be about 82 out of 100, ranking the game as "generally favorable."
