TALES FROM THE BORDERLANDS BACKGROUND SERIES

Episode 2 introduces two new characters, the hooligans Finch and Kroger. Other new characters in the game include Rhys and Vaughn's co-worker Yvette, the ruthless black market fencer August, the bandit leader Bossanova, and a mysterious stranger shown during in medias res scenes during the episodes. The story explores how the characters came together, showing common events from the perspective of both characters in a manner called the 'Big Fish version of what happened' by Telltale's Kevin Bruner. Fiona is a con artist working on Pandora along with her sister Sasha, both who learned under their adoptive mentor Felix. Rhys is a Hyperion employee, who has been working with his co-worker and best friend Vaughn to get promoted into the higher ranks of the company but is stymied by his new boss and rival Hugo Vasquez. The player separately controls the story's two protagonists Rhys and Fiona. It has been discovered that there are numerous other Vaults scattered throughout the galaxy, leading to a search for more Vault Keys that can open these new Vaults. The game occurs after the events of Borderlands 2. Long-standing fables of a Vault containing vast treasures on Pandora has drawn numerous 'Vault Hunters' to the planet, as well as the corporate interests of the Hyperion Corporation who maintain military-like control of the planet from an orbiting base named Helios. Tales takes place in the Borderlands universe, primarily on the planet Pandora. The game is confirmed to include an exclusive unlockable item for use in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. The game also includes some degree of the shooter elements, featured in the Borderlands series, particularly the procedurally-generated guns and loot generation. Choices made by the player influence story elements in future episodes. The player is able to move their player-character around the world's environment, interacting with objects and initiating conversation trees with non-player characters.

Tales from the Borderlands is an episodic point-and-click graphic adventure comedy video game similar to Telltale's other games. Particular praise was attributed to its strong characterization, creative set-pieces, humorous writing and unexpected pathos.

TALES FROM THE BORDERLANDS BACKGROUND SERIES

Although the series received some criticism due to the aging game engine and repetition of game play from past Telltale games, Borderlands largely received critical acclaim. The game follows the episodic format that Telltale used for its titles The Walking Dead and The Wolf Among Us, where player choices and actions have significant effects on later story elements.
