Welcome to Pandora's moon! Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel drops you into the boots of a Vault Hunter working for Handsome Jack, the charismatic (and unhinged) villain from Borderlands 2. You'll be blasting your way through low-gravity environments, managing oxygen levels, and experimenting with wild new elemental weapons as you fight to stop a rogue military faction. It's a classic Borderlands loot-and-shoot RPG experience, but with a unique verticality and a focus on Jack's rise to power.

This guide is here to help you conquer every challenge this lunar adventure throws at you. We'll walk you through critical missions like 'A New Direction' and 'Lost Legion Invasion,' break down how to effectively use Athena's Kinetic Aspis, and offer strategies for taking down tough bosses like Deadlift. Plus, we'll cover exploring every nook and cranny of Concordia for those elusive side quests and mastering the game's diverse arsenal.
