Claptrap — start bootup sequence… Borderlands Legendary Collection is now coming to the Nintendo Switch.
It’s official 2K Games – a subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive – loves the Nintendo Switch! They’ve released several games for the platform, and now they’re bringing their biggest hitter – the Borderlands series. In the past, we’ve received their annual releases of NBA and Civilization VI but it seems they’re wanting to expand their catalogue of games available on the beloved hybrid system. Alongside 2k’s announcement that the Borderlands Legendary Collection is coming to the Nintendo Switch, they also revealed that the XCOM 2 Collection and Bioshock Collection are Nintendo Switch inbound.
The Borderlands Legendary Collection includes Borderlands 1, 2, and the Pre-sequel. Borderlands 2 is my personal favorite! If you haven’t played any of these games, now is the perfect time to pick them up, and if you have and you’re like me, it might even be worth purchasing them again. The ability to play this series on the go is going to do this collection wonders! Unfortunately, if you were hoping it’d include the recently released Borderlands 3, it doesn’t. That being said, the prior games are all of the greatest quality and are what defined the looter shooter genre.
