The first-person looter shooter Borderlands 2 is currently free, for Windows, Linux, and Mac — 100% free to keep — during a limited-time Steam’s giveaway offer! Don’t miss out, as Borderlands 2 normally sells for US$19.99.
Borderlands 2 is an action-RPG and first-person shooter set once again on the planet Pandora, but seven years after the events of the original Borderlands (2009). It features a loot system capable of generating countless weapon and gear combinations. Developed by Gearbox Software, the game was originally released on September 18, 2012.
Warning: It looks like Gearbox and 2K have messed things up again, turning the game into some kind of spyware loaded with nonsense, according to its ToS (as reported in thousands of reviews on Steam). It’s best to avoid installing this mess, at least until these outrageous policies are changed.
The story follows a new group of Vault Hunters who must team up with a resistance force of civilian survivors and guerrilla fighters to take down a ruthless tyrant. This FPS lets you explore its world and complete both main quests and optional side missions — whether in offline split-screen, single-player, or online co-op.
Published by 2K Games (Windows) and Aspyr (Linux and Mac) and available on Windows, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, OS X, Vita, Linux, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Android, Nvidia Shield Tablet, Nvidia Shield TV, and Switch, Borderlands 2 was universally acclaimed by critics and a commercial success. On Steam, it currently holds hundreds of thousands of very positive reviews, at least at the time of this post. The game later received a prequel, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel! (2014), and a direct sequel, Borderlands 3 (2018).

About the game
A new era of shoot and loot is about to begin. Play as one of four new vault hunters facing off against a massive new world of creatures, psychos and the evil mastermind, Handsome Jack. Make new friends, arm them with a bazillion weapons and fight alongside them in 4 player co-op on a relentless quest for revenge and redemption across the undiscovered and unpredictable living planet.
Key Features:
- All-New Characters and All-New Classes: Four all new playable classes including the Siren, the Commando, the Gunzerker and the Assassin. Step into the role of the Gunzerker, whose highly deadly skills allow him to dual-wield any two weapons found in the game. Not only that, you will build on that skill to do more things with two guns than you ever imagined possible. Dual machine guns? Cool. Dual rocket launchers? Of course! Dual Sniper Rifles? Sure, if that’s your thing! Want to try other styles? More tactical perhaps? There are multiple classes to choose from!
- Dynamic Co-op online, and LAN: Share your adventures with friends both online and via LAN. Borderlands 2 features a seamless system enabling you to drop in and drop out of a campaign without ever having to restart the game. On top of that you can even take your new gear from any game to any other!
- World Connected Story: Find yourself left for dead in the frozen tundra of Pandora as you begin your quest of revenge and redemption. Expose the evil surrounding the Hyperion Corporation and take on the perpetrator of a universe-wide grand deception — the nefarious Hyperion CEO, Handsome Jack. (Oh, also: he’s stolen credit for the opening of the Vault.)
- 87 Bazillion…Everything: In addition to the new gun system, you will lust after procedurally generated shields, grenades, Relics, class mods and much, much more. And you thought the original Borderlands had a ton of loot!
- Brand new environments on Pandora: Hunt through entirely brand new areas of Pandora that are more alive than ever! From the arctic tundra, through the dangerous grasslands, past the mysterious corrosive caverns to beyond, you’ll be surprised by the unpredictable world of Pandora at every turn!
- Brand new enemies: A whole slew of new enemies are out there to kill you in Borderlands 2. Hulking, gorilla-like Bullymongs, vicious predatory Stalkers and the Hyperion mechanical army, run by Handsome Jack, are just some of the new enemies in Borderlands 2.
