The first official DLC pack for Borderlands 2 has been officially announced and detailed.

The DLC is titled “Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate’s Booty”. This DLC is $9.99 or free if you picked up the game’s season pass and will be released on October 16, 2012.

The Associated Press reports:

“The downloadable content focuses on the one-eyed pirate queen Captain Scarlett and is set amid an expansive desert that features a bandit-filled shanty town called Oasis. The new campaign tasks players with battling new enemies like sand worms, hovering across the terrain in the new sand skiff vehicle and collecting a new currency called seraph crystals. Pitchford said the new campaign was designed with all players in mind – from those who haven’t finished the game to the elite who are replaying it again to discover more swag.”

Randy Pitchford also stated about the DLC:

“You can sense the pirate theme across the landscape, even though there’s no water, It’s all dried up. It feels more like Tatooine than an ocean. These bandits have really embraced the pirate lifestyle, and there’s the legend of a treasure. That kicks off this whole adventure that the players can go on.”

So look forward to this new DLC for Borderlands 2 and expect a fun filled, action packed adventure.
