Borderlands Legends

About

Borderlands Legends is a mobile shooter RPG that shrinks the chaotic gunplay of the series into bite-sized arena battles. You pick from four familiar characters each with distinct abilities and blast through top-down maps filled with enemies and loot. Combat feels punchy with cover-based shooting and skill upgrades that tweak your playstyle. The touch controls are simple but responsive letting you focus on blasting hordes and picking up shiny new gear. The game keeps the series' irreverent humor and addictive loot system but packs it into short sessions. While not as deep as console entries it offers a brisk way to kill time with frantic gunfights and randomized rewards. Some players call it the best mobile shooter of its time though its 2012 release means it lacks modern polish. Still fans of the franchise will recognize the over-the-top action and may find it worth a download for nostalgia.
