- Four Classes: Level up as one of four distinct characters, with their own unique skills and abilities.
- Dangerous World: Fight your way through vicious alien wildlife, marauding gangs of bandits, and their leaders – and that’s just the easy stuff!
- Loot: Borderlands generates millions of guns, grenade mods, energy shields, artifacts, and more! Find the perfect gun!
- Play Your Way: Online, offline, singleplayer, or up to 4-player co-op (or 2-player splitscreen), you play Borderlands your way!
- Persistent Character: Level up and take your character to other players’ games, or have them join yours in drop-in, drop-out co-op! Keep your progress, experience, and equipment between games!
- Huge Game: Explore, gather loot, complete tons of side quests and challenges, finish the main story and continue on to a second playthrough (with tougher enemies and better loot), or even challenge your friends to combat!
