    The DLC was very good and stand amongst one of the best in the franchise. The story was great, dialogue and jokes were not annoying like in the main game, and the pacing was spot-on. Meanwhile, the loot and end game added to the game was fairly robust and kept me playing for a long time after its release. The 2 negatives are both "downgrades" form BL2 features. We did not get a raid bossThe DLC was very good and stand amongst one of the best in the franchise.

Meanwhile, the loot and end game added to the game was fairly robust and kept me playing for a long time after its release. The 2 negatives are both "downgrades" form BL2 features. We did not get a raid boss and no type of end game currency like in BL2's dlcs, and I feel like if those were a thing is this DLC it would be the best the series ever had. It is fine to not have those things but I still feel like they would make this a 10/10 package. Expand

    A pretty great little expansion that adds a couple hours worth of new content that are reasonably enjoyable.

    The idea of a casino heist never fails to be interesting and the new spaces are varied enough to feel distinct.New and returning characters are great and the writing feels like it's back to Borderlands 2 quality.Also new legendary weapons are quite interesting,a highlight here

    Definitely worth your time if you enjoyed the Borderlands 3 base game.

    Still a good DLC, capable of offering players in abstinence from chaos a valid reason to return to grip the pad.

    The Handsome Jackpot takes place in a whole new location: a Handsome Jack-owned casino gone wrong that Moxxi wants back. For an average price, the adventure offers many new features and an entertaining story -albeit disturbed by some boring quests. It's designed for long-time fans and creative weapons lovers, but not for those who seek for an innovative extension.
