Following its re-release on consoles and PC last month, we’re thrilled to announce that award-winning adventure game Tales from the Borderlands® is now available on the Nintendo Switch system. Players can purchase the game on Nintendo Switch at a special introductory price of $30.36 for a limited time.*
Originally released as a series of five episodes between November 2014 and October 2015, Tales from the Borderlands is a choice-driven narrative adventure game that takes place between the events of Borderlands 2 and Borderlands 3. Experience this beloved story from the perspectives of two protagonists thrown together in an unlikely partnership as they try to recover a mountain of money that each believes is theirs.
Fiona is a full-time con-artist who has been scheming to make a fortune selling a fake Vault Key. Rhys—who you might know from Borderlands 3 as the Atlas Corporation CEO—is an ambitious Hyperion employee who idolizes the recently deceased Handsome Jack and is in the market for a Vault Key. The deal they strike goes bad in ways that could only happen in the Borderlands, wreaking all kinds of mayhem. How the rest of the story plays out is up to you, as you make choices during explosive action scenes and conversations with familiar characters like Moxxi, Zer0, Marcus, and Claptrap.
Tales from the Borderlands is a crucial chapter in Borderlands canon, so if you haven’t yet experienced its chaotic, emotional journey, now’s the perfect time. This new release includes all five of the original episodes in one package:
- Episode 1 – Zer0 Sum
- Episode 2 – Atlas Mugged
- Episode 3 – Catch a Ride
- Episode 4 – Escape Plan Bravo
- Episode 5 – The Vault of the Traveller
Whether you’re new to Tales from the Borderlands or simply want to reacquaint yourself with Rhys and Fiona to take care of some unfinished business, we hope you enjoy your time with this unforgettable adventure.
And don’t forget, the Director’s Cut add-on for Borderlands 3 launches April 8 and includes a brand new raid boss, a series of murder mystery missions, new challenges and rewards via the all-new Vault Cards, and a cache of never-before-seen behind-the-scenes content. Director’s Cut will be available individually or as part of Season Pass 2.**
