Nice, I imagine we'll see this at the September Direct.

 

[L*][*N*K]

This will be my 3rd time buying this game, I really love Borderlands.

 

[AJUMP23]

I Skipped this iteration. I enjoyed 1 and 2 though. I would get it on my PC if I wanted to play it.

Would it be 30fps?

Would it be 30fps?

Of course it will (barely)

They announce this $60 switch port the exact same time as the $60 XSX/PS5 collection.

Everyone gets all the games for 60$ while switch owner's get just one entry. Best platform ever.

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

Finally! Wish it had cross-play though.

Borderlands Collection is already on Switch since a while now and comes with the first 2 games in the franchise and also the pre-sequel. Or do you mean about a SKU containing all 3 mainline games + Pre-Sequel?

Ah, never mind, they also launched a complete collection for PS5/XBS but didn't saw the news: https://www.gematsu.com/2023/08/bor...unced-for-ps5-xbox-series-ps4-xbox-one-and-pc

I’m assuming this is going to run and look horribly on the switch. Can’t wait for the digital foundry review. I hope they also compare it to the Vita port of BL2.

 

[Skifi28]

Would it be 30fps?

20 if you're lucky.

The Borderlands 3 Switch physical version requires a 62GB download... Awesome!

 

[Kacho]

Lots of stutters

 

[EverydayBeast]

Once you start borderlands 3 you’ll get onboard, 1, 2 weren’t the best shooters.

Should have known. They cheaped out on the other collection putting only the first game on the cart.

How the hell are people supposed to play these games (MGS, Batman Arkham etc.) on Switch when they all require 50GB+ Downloads??

 

[Kenneth Haight]

Would it be 30fps?

 

[Deerock71]

They announce this $60 switch port the exact same time as the $60 XSX/PS5 collection.

It's because they now realize how much shit they were full of about Nintendo console owners only buying Nintendo software. We'll buy quality software.

Expand that storage because they're only going to get bigger as the system nears the end of its lifetime.

Seems the initial report was wrong
