Critics generally praised the game's visuals, writing, gameplay, and online multiplayer, as well as its variety of guns, while criticising its mission design and content fillers. The game received universal acclaim upon release. Borderlands 2 was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in September 2012, and it was ported to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as part of The Handsome Collection in March 2015.

Among the game's diverse cast of characters, Handsome Jack, the central antagonist, was created to be a charismatic 'douche' that mirrors Burch's own personality. The team attempted to address players' feedback from the first game, and recruited Anthony Burch who wrote the game's script which is seven times longer than that of the original game. Like its predecessor, the game adopted the 'concept art style', which features graphics inspired by both photorealistic imagery and comic-book-inspired visuals. With the unexpected success of the first game, Gearbox was able to secure a budget of $30–35 million to develop the sequel. Like its predecessor, the game features a procedurally generated loot system which is capable of generating numerous combinations of weapons and other gear. The game features the ability to explore the in-game world and complete main missions and optional side quests, either in offline splitscreen, single-player or online cooperative gameplay. The story follows a new group of Vault Hunters who must ally with the Crimson Raiders, a resistance group made up of civilian survivors and guerrilla fighters, to defeat the tyrannical Handsome Jack before he can unlock the power of a new Vault.

Taking place five years following the events of Borderlands (2009), the game is again set on the planet of Pandora. Action role-playing, first-person shooterīorderlands 2 is a 2012 first-person shooter video game developed by Gearbox Software and published by 2K Games.
