    A gargantuan amount of content and great gameplay (improved thanks to the new consoles capabilities) makes this the best version possible of a legendary game. The name is no lie: this is the ultimate edition of Borderlands 3.

    Finally realising its potential, Borderlands 3 goes from great to essential on PlayStation 5, thanks to its new visual features, DualSense implementation and the ability to have up to four players blasting their way through the game locally. If you've been holding off playing Borderlands 3 until now, your watch has ended.

    Make no doubt about it, this is the definitive way to play Borderlands 3. Whether you’re venturing into the Borderlands for the first time, or revisiting now that the technical issues are fixed, you’re in for a hell of a time.

    Borderlands 3 is a no-brainer for those who already own the game to experience what the PlayStation 5 is capable of. The Resolution Mode visually adds so much more and the Performance Mode gives players a chance to try out the 120hz mode on a compatible display. The story remains the same, but the DLC will add many more ways to play for users. The DualSense Controller with the PS5 is the true game changer here and it’s further bolstered by the 3D Audio. Gearbox no doubt took advantage of the new hardware to unleash the proper Borderlands 3.

    If you’re expecting a great evolution to the series, you might be a little disappointed with what Borderlands 3 brings to the table. But if you’re happy to jump into more of the same, albeit on a greater scale, you’ll find a lot to love here. And on the new generation of consoles, Borderlands 3 shines better than ever. Playing at 60fps with up to 4K resolution really makes a world of difference; Borderlands 3 has never been more of a pleasure to shoot your way through.

    Quite a good well-rounded Borderlands package. If you've enjoyed Borderlands 2, BL3 is very similar and a bit bigger.

But like, Borderlands 3 is A LOT better on the PS5. Like, the loading times, gameplay, and general vibe, and setting feel much better with this 60fps. The game also just looks beautiful. The narrative made me cringe more than once... a really dull story at times. You get great moments than some truly awful humor. The villains are alright.

    I think the game (overall) has improved quite a lot since the initial launch. I do think this is definitely worth purchasing on the PS5. Everything just feels smoother? More fluid? The gameplay is also just some of the best FPS shooting I've had in quite some time. Really responsive, with the PS5's controller you also feel more in control of the actual rate of fire. It does make the gameplay more immersive.

    It's a good time.

    Honestly, besides the bland humor and kinda average writting. This is a pretty solid (fun) action shooter. I would recommend playing on PS5 and playing with friends.

    Loved the first two, this ones trash. Horrible story, bad gameplay, and even worse graphics.
