Battleborn is a team-based first-person hero shooter developed by Gearbox Software. The game features many elements from the MOBA (multiplayer online battle arena) genre, such as a diverse set of characters with different abilities and roles, an in-match leveling system, and competitive, objective-based play modes. There is a total of 25 playable heroes and three distinct multiplayer modes which pit two teams of five against each other.
While the main appeal of Battleborn is in its multiplayer, a campaign for solo or four-player co-op play is also included.
Pre-order bonuses
Pre-order the game anywhere to get the Firstborn Pack which includes an exclusive in-game title and golden character skins for Thorn, Reyna, Montana, Marquis, and Rath.
GameStop has a more tangible bonus: pre-order Battleborn with them to get a fully-painted, 3″ tall figurine of either Thorn, Rath, Orendi, Montana, or Miko. The figures are selected randomly so you won’t know which one you got until you unpack it. This offer is available while supplies last.
Finally, BestBuy is offering $10 in reward certificates with this title.
Digital Deluxe
The game is also available on Xbox and PlayStation stores in a Digital Deluxe Edition priced at $75. The following extras are included:
- Season Pass with all five DLC packs and instant access to heroes 26-30 upon their release
- Taunts for Oscar Mike, Miko, Caldarius, Phoebe, and Orendi
- “Cyber” character skin for Oscar Mike, Miko, Caldarius, Phoebe, and Orendi
- 3 Legendary Gear packs

Of course, the Season Pass can also be purchased separately.
