Borderlands 3 Review Summary

Critic Consensus

Bigger & Better

Borderlands 3 builds on the set formula by ramping everything up to eleven.

Even More Loot

One of the original looter shooters brings even more quirky and explosive guns to the table.

Playing Safe

Borderlands 3 plays it very safe, never straying too far from the set formula that's over ten years old now.

Borderlands 3 was built for fans of the series and even though it doesn't take any unnecessary risks with its formula, it still manages to excite and thrill players from start to finish.

No Recommendation / Blank

The humour is even more annoying, the guns even more amazing and Gearbox's shooter is more divisive than it's ever been.

Borderlands 3 may be a buggy game with performance issues and a disappointing story, but its fun factor is impossible to deny.

Borderlands 3 is an OK game. The shooting and the looting is mostly good with just a few niggles here and there. It could have been a good game, possibly even a great game, but is held back by a truly abysmal story.

Borderlands 3 sticks to its guns and outdoes itself with an amazing arsenal of weapons, humor, and missions.

An endless font of bad jokes and cool guns in the series' most vapid story yet, Borderlands 3 skates by on watching numbers fly and goons explode.

Borderlands 3 is a fan-servicing treat of a Borderlands game, albeit one somewhat soured by technical issues and lacklustre villains.

8 / 10.0

Borderlands 3 is a love letter to its fans and a celebration of the style of play it first popularized. Filled with characters from previous installments, and unapologetic in its silly humor and bombastic action, it’s an amusing ride that seems hesitant to innovate.

8 / 10

Borderlands 3 fumbles with its bosses, but the game ultimately continues its predecessors' tradition of fun, mayhem-filled looting and shooting.
