Battleborn Walkthrough

From the creators of Borderlands comes Battleborn, a new first-person shooter for every kind of badass.

A tremendous band of badass heroes fight to protect the universe’s very last star from a mysterious evil in this next-gen shooter by the creators of Borderlands. To defend it, you’ll need to utilize every type of character and weapon you’ve ever imagined — from cyborg hawkmen to samurai vampires to mini-gun wielding man-mountains. Slash and parry, run and gun, cast and dash, or simply obliterate foes all while building and growing your personal team of heroes. Choose your hero and fight alone or co-operatively alongside friends in story missions, or battle against them in fast-paced competitive multiplayer matches.

Key Game Features:

  • Story Mode: Battleborn’s Story Mode is a narrative experience that can be played entirely singleplayer and is even better when it’s played cooperatively with friends.
  • Multiplayer: Battleborn’s team-based competitive multiplayer action can be experienced by up to 10 players online in 5v5 matches, and includes three distinct multiplayer modes.
    – Incursion: Teams of heroes must defend their base from waves of AI-controlled minions while working together alongside their own minions to destroy their opponent’s base.
    – Capture: Teams of heroes face off in a fast-paced death match and must capture and hold objectives on the map to win.
    – Meltdown: Teams of heroes must guide their minions as they march to their death at the center of the map. Points are scored for every minion who throws themselves into the incinerator, and the team with the most points wins.
  • Persistent Progression System: All experience points, whether earned through playing Battleborn’s Story Mode or Competitive Multiplayer modes, contribute to leveling up individual Character Rank, as well as player profile Command Rank.
    – Character Rank: Each hero can permanently rank up from 1 to 10 outside of missions and matches, allowing players to swap out augments in their helix skill tree, as well as unlock skins.
    – Command Rank: Players can rank up their own player profile, unlocking badges and titles to impress friends, and loot that can be used to benefit any hero the player chooses to command.
  • Factions: The last star, Solus, is the only beacon of hope for the universe’s surviving factions.
    – The Peacekeepers are sworn protectors of Solus.
    – The Eldrid are preservers of the natural order of the universe.
    – The Rogues are mercenaries only concerned with their own survival.
    – The Last Light Consortium (LLC) are war profiteers, exploiting others for their own gain.
    – The Jennerit Empire rule others by force, valuing power above all else.
  • Battleborn Heroes: Battleborn has a deep roster of 25 playable heroes and no two are the same. Every hero has their own personality and comes equipped with their own unique weapons and powers.
  • Helix System: Battleborn’s accelerated character growth system allows players to level-up a character from 1 to 10 and fully experience each hero’s unique weapons and powers in a single story mission or multiplayer match.

How do you sort through all of the chaos at the end of the universe? Don’t worry, we’ve got just the thing! If you don’t know what Battleborn is – or just need some help sorting the nihilistic robots from the star-consuming extradimensional horrors – watch this official Gearbox video to get ALL of the details.

Prequel Motion Comic

The 25 playable heroes – from the five remaining factions in the universe – are all that stand between us and total annihilation. This uneasy alliance is at the verge of falling apart. That’s the good news. The bad news: You’ve got star-sucking cosmic horrors, called Varelsi, and the treacherous Jennerit scumbag, Rendain, — both are on a mission to drag every last star system kicking and screaming into the void.

And what better way to tell the stories of what brought these Battleborn together than with an awesome animated comic run?

Chapter 1: Running the Numbers

A few years and several hundred star veilings are enough to drive even the most loyal officers to betrayal.

As Penarch is nearly veiled, Rendain relishes in his success and looks ahead to the inevitable destruction of Solus, The Last Star. While unbeknownst to him his closest advisor has other plans.

Chapter 2: The Rescue

The Varelsi invasion is becoming overwhelming but the United Peacekeeping Republics (UPR) will not leave their own man, clone, or avian behind.

Meanwhile on the ground on Penarch Prime, Benedict has been pinned down by the Varelsi horde. His friends Oscar Mike and Montana attempt to join his position.

Chapter 3: No More Heroics

When the end of the star system is immanent, a UPR commander must choose between obeying orders, or saving untrustworthy potential allies.

Penarch is nearly darkened, and anyone left on the surface has little time to escape. Ghalt and his U.P.R. soldiers are ordered to evacuate immediately, but he doesn’t intend to leave anyone behind.

Command 25 unique heroes and save the universe from the brink of extinction!

Tip: The Battleborn animated intro & Prologue mission is replayable & skippable after the 1st time!

Control Tips:
• Press B (PC) / Down on the D-pad (PS4/Xbox One) to go back/recall. – Don’t stand at a regeneration station if you’re at 30% health it is almost NEVER worth it, you will waste so much time and die so much more if you refuse to back when you need to.
• Press V (PC) / Circle (PS4) / B (Xbox One) to do a melee attack. – Every Hero has a melee button and it’s extremely important in certain situations, for instance if rath is ulting you and you want to knock him back or some heroes even have a movement tech with it
