The Next Borderlands 3 DLC Release Date Has Interesting Implications for Future Content


Borderlands 3 had fans guessing at what Spring 2020's DLC roadmap would look like, but the release date of the next DLC throws those predictions off.

Borderlands 3 laid out its first three months of DLC in a nice, easy to understand package which Gearbox dubbed the 2019 Fall/Winter DLC Roadmap. This reveal and the additional content that came along with it set a precedent which many fans expected the game to follow well into the next year, but now that the Spring 2020 DLC roadmap has finally released, most predictions have been thrown off quite substantially. Ultimately, it seems that Gearbox is sticking with three main types of content; in game events like October's Bloody Harvest, takedowns like the one at the Maliwan Blacksite, and paid story DLCs like Mad Moxxi's Heist for the Handsome Jackpot, but the order and timing of this content has changed substantially.

For those unaware, the original Borderlands 3 Fall/Winter DLC Roadmap looked something like this: The game released in September, October saw a Halloween Seasonal event, November brought the game's first add on takedown mission, and then December closed out the year and the season with a new story DLC. Curiously, though, the same did not happen in January, February, and March, the first two of which never even made it onto a roadmap. Now, the Spring 2020 DLC Roadmap shows that March will be bringing the next Story DLC, April will bring the in game event, and May sees the introduction of the next takedown.
