By completing quests, experience is earned to distribute skill points and build a character with through skill trees with elements of role-playing games.
Loot and especially many different types of guns play an important role to complement the character path.
The story is set between the first and the second game, more specifically between the two DLC items The Secret Armory of General Knoxx and Claptrap's New Robot Revolution .
It tells how Handsome Jack, the main antagonist from Borderlands 2 , rose to power.
It is told as a flashback by Athena after the events of Borderlands 2 , when she is captured and interrogated by Lilith.
She teamed up with three vault hunters to head towards the Hyperion moon base Helios, but on the way they are ambushed and crash-land on the moon base.
Most of the game takes place first on Pandora's moon Elpis and later on Helios.
There are four characters to choose from that were all previously NPCs in the previous games.
They are Athena, Claptrap, Nisha and Wilhelm.
They each represent a different class with specific skills and abilities.
The gameplay is largely identical to the previous games.
New elements are low gravity affecting jump height and causing bodies and loot to float away when fighting on the moon surface.
O2 kits are used for air supply and they can be replenished through vents, generators and tanks dropped by enemies.
The kits can also be used for movement and combat, using them as a jet pack, to hover, double jump, and to come down with a ground slam.
As with the other items in the game there is large variety of kits with bonuses.
Two new item types have been added next to the existing ones.
The game introduces laser guns (beams, blasters, railguns etc. with low recoil) and items with a cryogenic elemental effect.
About PlayStation 3
Released in 2006, the PlayStation 3 had a rocky start thanks to its high launch price but became known for its exclusive franchises and Blu-ray drive, which doubled as an early home theater upgrade for many households. PS3 collecting is still relatively young — most titles are inexpensive — but the console's digital PSN storefront closure risk has pushed more collectors toward physical copies specifically to preserve access.
Gamevaro tracks Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel for PlayStation 3 with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This PS3 release dates back to 2014.
