Borderlands 3--Watch 13 Minutes From The New DLC Before It Launches

Borderlands 3 is getting its first paid story DLC soon, with Moxxi's Heist of the Handsome Jackpot due to release on December 19 for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. It will send you into a massive casino formerly owned by Handsome Jack, the antagonist of Borderlands 2, to pull off a heist while also fending away the various patrons who have been trapped there in the years after his death seven years prior.

The official Borderlands YouTube account has uploaded a video of the first 13-odd minutes after you enter the casino, showing what to expect when your vault hunter stages their own heist later this month. It's embedded below.

The footage sees the return of Handsome Jack, albeit in talking hologram form. Naturally, there's also a whole heap of combat within moments of the DLC starting. As it turns out, you're there to snatch the casino because Jack promised to bankroll Moxxi's own den of gambling when they were an item--so this will be, on some level, a revenge narrative.

Borderlands 3 has received several free updates since it launched. This DLC is part of the game's paid season pass, and is the first of four campaign DLC packages.
