Tales from the Borderlands

Set on Pandora between Borderlands 2 and Borderlands 3, the story follows Rhys, a Hyperion employee with ambitions inside the corporation, and Fiona, a resourceful con artist. After a deal goes wrong, they are forced to work together on a dangerous adventure.

Play from both characters’ perspectives as you choose dialogue, interact with the environment, solve simple puzzles, and explore limited areas. Action sequences use quick-time events rather than the series’ usual focus on shooting and loot.

The five episodes let you make decisions that shape conversations, relationships, and later story moments. Choices guide the pair’s journey and its outcomes, while the story mixes comedy with more dramatic scenes.

Many supplied reviewers enjoy the character-focused story, especially its blend of Borderlands humor and emotional moments. They often praise the cast, dialogue, voice acting, and music, and some say the adventure works even without prior experience with the series. Some reviewers find the gameplay sparse or the choices less consequential than expected, and a smaller number report technical problems with the PC version.
