The latest entry in the Borderlands series, Borderlands 4, has finally hit shelves. Yet some fans are intimidated by its steep $69.99 MSRP and are waiting for big discounts before diving in.
Fortunately, there are alternative, cheaper options to enjoy the madness of the Borderlands franchise. Case in point: Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, a D&D-inspired spin-off that's having a steal-of-a-deal 81% discount, taking its $59.99 MSRP down to $10.89 at Loaded.
Why buy Tiny Tina's Wonderlands?
While Tiny Tina's Wonderlands' 30-40 hour campaign may not have the massive scope or stakes as mainline Borderlands titles, it more than makes up for it with well-paced and sheer, unbridled fun.
It's a deliciously absurd adventure that will have you laughing at its humor (especially if you grew up playing Dungeons & Dragons) while sucker-punching with touching moments that will hit harder if you are a long-time Borderlands fan.
As for the gameplay, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands has the tried-and-true looter-shooter format Borderlands is famous for, while shaking it with some unique mechanics and ideas to make it stand amongst its mainline counterparts.
As a "Fatemaker", you can multiclass instead of being locked into only one, and combine different class abilities to create a wholly unique character that will reduce enemies to kingdom come.
Additionally, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands has a satisfying, challenging endgame mode called Chaos Chamber. In this roguelike-esque content, you will fight endless waves of foes, each one more difficult than the last, across the game's fantastical locales.
Defeating enemies will drop absurdly mighty, randomized loot depending on difficulty levels, making the grind and challenge in killing these baddies worth the effort.
Borderlands 4 may be the new hotness, but Tiny Tina's Wonderlands proves that it's worth rolling for initiative, especially now that the PC version is on sale for $10.89 at Loaded, saving you $49.10 from its MSRP of $59.99.
I know I'm certainly taking this deal as it will be a good way to kill time before Borderlands 4's first DLC Vault Hunter, C4SH, arrives in 2026, as that's when I plan to jump into the latest entry of this long-running franchise.
