If you’re so inclined, New Tales from the Borderlands treads familiar territory, but this time with a brand new set of characters that can’t hold a candle to the chemistry of what came before it. They clearly have no idea where to take this franchise next, throwing everything at the wall and trying out everything that stuck. The original is the best Borderlands game ever made. New Tales feels, acts and plays like a cash-in for a company running out of ideas for their global franchise and looking to resurrect their greatest spin-off. Whilst TellTale Games themselves got enormous (so enormous they ran completely out of money and had to close in 2018) with ‘TellTale’ versions of Game of Thrones, Minecraft, Marvel, DC and much more, Tales from the Borderlands was a genuinely fantastically executed seven and a bit hours of pure joy.
There are a majority of endings and your choices for the characters will ultimately allow you to see how your choices played out, and how they compare to other players around the world.

They’re all wrong, it’s Tales from the Borderlands and that a sequel was coming made me giddier than a tiny happy robot voiced by Ashley Johnson. Some say it’s the second series of Batman, some idiots even proclaim Guardians of the Galaxy is the greatest achievement. Some say The Walking Dead is the best series in the glorious TellTale canon. The story of a gang of ragtag idiots doing whatever it takes to survive in the brutal lands of Pandora stands up to any scrutiny you can imagine. TellTale’s Tales from the Borderlands is perhaps their magnum opus.
