Gearbox has announced that their upcoming Borderlands Game of The Year edition will not only include lots of DLC, but it’ll have something else as well: early access to the Duke Nukem Forever demo. The GOTY edition will come with a code to download the demo prior to anyone else, however, it’s not mentioned exactly when that’ll happen.

Gearbox’ Borderlands has racked up 1 million in sales on each of two console platforms, the Xbox 360 and PS3, which entitles the game to be included in their respective Greatest Hits lineups. This means it’ll still be on the store shelves, at a new, low price of $30.

Gearbox has announced that Borderlands will be getting a new update for the shooter which will raise the level cap from 61 to 69. The update will be released for free on October 12, the same day the Game Of The Year edition will be released. The level cap update will be for both the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 versions.

Gearbox has finally revealed the Game of The Year edition of Borderlands, which includes all four DLC packs released so far, bringing you an extra 10 or so hours of gameplay, all for the same price of $50 on PC, or $60 on the Xbox 360 and PS3. ON top of that, Gearbox plans to release one more piece of DLC this year, wrapping up an impressive feat for Borderlands. Sequel, here we come!

Gearbox’ shooter Borderlands has received three pieces of DLC since it was released almost a year ago. Now the DLC, which usually retails at $10 a piece, has been discounted to half price on Xbox Live, in case you’re looking for some more cell-shaded action. The offer is only for next week.

While developer Gearbox hasn’t announced anything, GameStop seems to have, according to a leaked page on their site showing a Game Of The Year edition of the Borderlands strategy guide (which has since been removed). It’s safe to assume that it’ll be Borderlands + the three DLC packs. Expect it to retail later this month.

Are you looking for some fresh Borderlands content but don’t want to shell out $10 for any of the DLC packs? Well, you’re in luck as Gearbox has just slashed the price on Xbox Live from 800 Microsoft Points to 400. That’s $10 to $5.

Unfortunately it won’t be for all packs, just The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, but rumor has it Gearbox plans to release a 4th currently untitled DLC pack for Borderlands at some point in the near future.

As always, we’ll keep you posted.

Have you not picked up either The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned or Mad Moxxi’s Underdome Riot for Borderlands? Well, you’re in luck as 2K Games has just announced that they will be bundling the 2 DLC packs on a retail disc called the Double Game Add-on Pack.

The pack will ship to North American Retailers on April 6th and international retailers on April 9th for $19.99. What’s strange is the fact that there was no mention of a PS3 release, only an Xbox 360 and PC one.

We’ll keep you posted.

Borderlands already has The Secret Armory of General Knoxx, Mad Moxxi’s Underdome Riot and The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned DLC packs but already  2K’s CEO, Ben Feder, is talking about future expansions. In fact, Feder said that Gearbox “will continue to support the title with add-on content”.

That’s the extent of the details we have regarding the new DLC but GDC will most likely bring more info.

Currently, if you want either of the Borderlands DLC packs you have to, well, download them. Luckily, 2k Games has just announced that they will be releasing a DLC compilation disc to retail that includes both The Zombie Island of Doctor Ned and Mad Moxxi”s Underdome Riot. The pack is apparantly only for the Xbox 360 and PC with no plans for a PS3 release.

We’ll keep you updated when more information is made known but chances are if you’re a Borderlands fan, you already have this.
