Borderlands 3: Bounty of Blood now live

'Borderlands 3: Bounty of Blood' is now live. The third of four expansions of the Gearbox Software game takes gamers on a Western-style bounty hunt and the downloadable content (DLC) includes a new vehicle, four new combat-related objects, new missions, challenges and loot. A press release for the expansion explains: "The sheriff of Vestige on the harsh frontier planet of Gehenna has issued a bounty on the violent, beast-riding Devil Riders gang, and it's time to collect. The townsfolk are tough as hell and will do what they can to help, but it falls on you to take the fight to the Devil Riders. Put them in the ground so the town can be rebuilt and folks can get back on their feet." The fourth and final 'Borderlands 3' DLC is set to be released in September. Meanwhile, Gearbox Software recently announced plans for a virtual fundraiser for Covid-19 relief. The games company is raising money for Direct Relief: a humanitarian aid organisation which provides personal protective equipment for medical workers who are working during the coronavirus pandemic. When players donate $5 or more to Direct Relief, they can get a free digital mask for their character to wear in the game. The company explained in a statement: "The project gives millions of video gamers stuck in their homes across the globe a chance to support something important, like ongoing emergency healthcare efforts."
