Oct 20, 2015Hilarious, heartfelt and high-octane, Tales from the Borderlands is a must-play game that sets a new standard for comedy games to come.
-
Pelit (Finland)Jan 4, 2016Telltale has a winner here. The comedy, the pacing, everything works in this great episodic adventure. [Dec 2015]
-
Apr 7, 2016Tales from the Borderlands can easily compete against the hottest contenders on TV, not just on account of its writing, but also its cinematic beauty.
-
PC PowerPlayDec 3, 2015Binge all five episodes and you're in for something pretty damn special. [Dec 2015, p.61]

Nov 19, 2015The thing that sets Tales from the Borderlands apart from any others in the series so far is that I want to go back and play it again. Like, right now.
-
Nov 3, 2015Obviously, fans of Borderlands will get much more out of it, but even if you haven’t played the first person shooter RPGs, you’ll still have a great time seeing this world in the eyes of a couple of cons. It is well acted, has tons of style, and brings a great story to the table.
-
Nov 2, 2015Tales from the Borderlands may also be the best-looking game Telltale has ever produced.
-
Oct 29, 2015It is as true to its roots as it can be in a style so totally different from the source material. In addition, it is fantastic that it is accepted cannon in the Borderlands universe, meaning that all characters were in danger, even established ones.
-
Oct 23, 2015Tales from the Borderlands is a big, funny adventure with great characters—worth playing even if you don't like Borderlands.
-
Oct 21, 2015This is, without a doubt, the finest series Telltale Games have produced to date. Whether you’re already a Borderlands fan or not, Tales From The Borderlands delivers an emotional, entertaining, and downright fun episodic adventure title.
-
Jan 20, 2016If you like a good story, or simply want to return to Pandora one more time, the game is easy to recommend. If you're looking for something that you actively play more than you watch, then you should probably pass on Tales from the Borderlands.
-
CD-ActionJan 12, 2016I can’t express how delighted I was with the first episode. Unfortunately later the game lost some of its magic and oscillated between decent and really good. Despite that fact it’s by far the funniest thing I’ve played in years and I can’t wait to get my hands on the second season. [13/2015, p.63]
-
GameTrailersDec 13, 2015It's fun, and funny with plenty of great payoffs for Borderlands fans.
-
Nov 11, 2015If nothing else, the awesome humor, interesting characters and the always welcomed insanity of Borderlands will surely hold your attention.
-
Edge MagazineDec 12, 2015On its own terms, Tales from the Borderlands is one of Telltale's best works yet. [Christmas 2015, p.116]
-
Nov 15, 2015If you’re looking for something to fill the gap between the inevitable current gen iteration of the Borderlands franchise, albeit with a much stronger focus on characterisation and story, then Tales from the Borderlands will more than satisfy your desire.
-
Nov 2, 2015Tales from the Borderlands marks the return to high form after a mediocre (in my opinion) second season of The Walking Dead. The new Telltale Games production has poor gameplay, isn't very pretty, and the decisions often signify nothing. And yet again a great story, excellent characters and superb humor make you believe it's a very good game.
-
Oct 25, 2015Its a funny adventure with a great narrative and will entertain Borderland fans and new players alike.
-
Nov 30, 2015If you value humor and atmosphere above all else, go forth and enjoy Tales from the Borderlands. If not, you will have a hard time enjoying a cartoon without gameplay, freedom and bedazzling graphics.
