The season move for first-person tween DM simulator Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands marketed that it might embrace 4 expansions, so we knew there was DLC coming for the Borderlands spin-off, and now we all know somewhat extra about it. The primary chunk of DLC is known as Coiled Captors, it is about combating a shark god, and it is out on April 21.
The Coiled are the snake-women of Wonderlands, serpentine cultists who draw their energy from elder gods. A kind of gods is a shark deity referred to as Pals, who turned out to be so harmful they needed to entice him within the physique of a seawarg, which is what Tiny Tina calls her landsharks. (It is a greater identify than D&D’s “bulette”.) In Coiled Captors, gamers must battle their means by means of a dungeon filled with Coiled and offended underwater beasts who’re already combating one another, then free Pals, then defeat Pals. Why? I suppose we’ll discover out when Tiny Tina will get round to studying the boxed textual content.
Coiled Captors will include new gear and cosmetics, gained by spending misplaced souls earned by killing its enemies to spin a Wheel of Destiny, in addition to a frozen dungeon accessed through a Mirror of Thriller in Dreamveil Outlook. Enemies might be scaled to match your stage, with a minimal of stage 13.
Pals will get a brand new kind each time he is defeated, although we’ll have to attend every week earlier than every one turns into accessible. The primary kind might be accessible at launch, the second from 9.30am PT on April 28, the third on Could 5, and the ultimate kind from Could 12. If you happen to play Coiled Captors after these dates you will nonetheless need to battle him in every kind to unlock the subsequent one and apparently that is how we’ll get to listen to the “full story”.
It would not sound like an actual narrative-heavy add-on, which is a disgrace given how glorious the tales have been within the best Borderlands DLC. Provided that Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is a sort of sequel to a very story-first Borderlands 2 DLC, I hoped for extra in that vein. As an alternative, Coiled Captors appears designed to feed into the endgame loot chase, including extra stage layouts in addition to Pals himself to the variables accessible within the replayable Chaos Chambers that Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands has as a substitute of a brand new recreation plus mode.
The subsequent three expansions are referred to as Glutton’s Gamble, Molten Mirrors, and Shattering Spectreglass, and primarily based on the similarity of their names they could be of an analogous scale to Coiled Captors. Presumably, will increase to the extent cap might be coming as a part of future patches accessible to all gamers no matter whether or not to procure the DLC, as was the case with Borderlands 3. And it is extraordinarily seemingly that level-cap boosts are comings, since gamers are already discovering guns so high-level they can’t shoot them.
