Players eagerly waiting for Borderlands 4’s new Vault Hunters.

However, it is possible to spend time immersed in the franchise with a spin-off game that is currently free. Tiny Tina’s Wonderland, released in 2022, is now free for PC via Epic Games Store, though the game can only be claimed until June 5. The Borderlands spin-off game can be claimed completely free of charge during the period, and after its acquisition, it will be added to your library permanently, allowing you to it at any given time, on any PC you use your Epic to with.

Why You Should Play Tiny Tina's Wonderlands

Aside From It Being Free Of Cost, The Game Provides A Borderlands Experience With A Twist

Overall, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is a great game. It blends the gameplay style that players are familiar with from the Borderlands series and adds touches of fantasy, deviating a bit from the sci-fi setting the franchise is normally set in. It also follows Tiny Tina, one of the series’ most charismatic characters, played by Ashly Burch. With the game, especially with it being free, players can experience high-intensity shoot-offs with enemies while using creative weapons and abilities to progress.

I Couldn't Be Happier Borderlands 4 Is Teasing My Favorite Kind Of DLC

DLC has been a consistent part of the Borderlands franchise, and it looks like Borderlands 4 may be featuring my favorite kind of new content.

The game also provides a better look into some secondary characters from a brand-new point of view, allowing you to expand your knowledge of the franchise. Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands can, at moments, feel very different from Borderlands, but it does still retain the series’ charm, and should keep you occupied with plenty of hours of gameplay before Borderlands 4.
