Borderlands 3 launches its fourth campaign expansion today. This DLC delves into the mind of Psycho Krieg. The aptly titled Psycho Krieg and the Fantastic Fustercluck is ready for consumption on PC and consoles. Included is what 2K says is probably the final level cap increase for the foreseeable future.
Borderlands 3 – the Fourth Fustercluck
Psycho Krieg and the Fantastic Fustercluck takes place entirely in the titular meat maestro's messed-up consciousness. This is thanks to some absurdly advanced technology devised by brilliant scientist Patricia Tannis. Tannis is convinced that this unsettling environment holds the key to a mythical place she's dubbed “Vaulthalla.” She needs you to seek answers inside Krieg's mindscape. Only by surviving the perils of Krieg’s twisted inner world can you reap the rewards of Vaulthalla:
- Journey through the many demented vistas of Krieg's psyche, where anything is possible and likely very violent;
- Experience the world as Krieg sees it, including his perception of fan-favorite characters like Maya, the light of his twisted life;
- Overcome a vast array of life-threatening manifestations that Krieg's mind conjures up;
- Expand Krieg's mind and Tannis' research in surreal side missions and Crew Challenges;
- Score powerful Legendary weapons and gear that – according to Tannis – will work outside of Krieg's consciousness;
- Acquire brain-busting cosmetic items, including Vault Hunter Heads and Skins.
Psycho Krieg and the Fantastic Fustercluck is included with the Borderlands 3 Super Deluxe Edition and Season Pass. If purchased separately, you will need a copy of the base game to play this content. Enter Tannis' lab aboard Sanctuary III to enter Krieg's mind. Look for the psycho mask highlighted by a yellow exclamation point.
Today’s patch readies your game for the new expansion and adds a free level cap increase for all players. Vault Hunters can now unlock five additional levels and skill points on their way to the new maximum of 65. This is the largest single level cap increase since launch. It is also the last planned level cap increase, at least for now.
Borderlands 3 is available now on PC, PS4, Xbox One and Google Stadia. Check out the official website for full details.
