This is the call that 2K, the creators of Borderlands, recently sent out in order to tell us that the time is near. They are sending a message to all those who are preparing for Battleborn, which is set to be released May 3rd of this year. Starting April 8th at 10am, their open beta will begin and will be accessible for PS4 players. For PC and Xbox One systems, this beta will be open beginning April 13th. 

In case you haven’t been looped in on Battleborn, let’s get you up to speed. What’s at stake? The last star in existence. But who will save it? Just those who were literally born for battle – a group of 25 very different, very powerful heroes that are at your disposal. Play in story mode, co-op split screen, or battle it up in a 5v5 arena to level up, win characters, and unlock powers. 

As an added bonus for PS4 beta players, they will not only receive the first Battleborn DLC and instant access to Alani upon release, but they’ll also gain access to the Battleborn hero, Toby, during the open beta.
