Mad Alley and the Vault of the Damned

Border 4 is getting its first major DLC, Mad Alley and the Vault of the DamnedThis march, which will further expand the bombastic looter-shooter. Many players feel that this expansion can't come soon enough, considering how content-driven it is Border 4The last game of

Headlining Crazy Ellie There's a brand new Vault Hunter called C4SH, which brings the game's total number of playable characters to five.

I like it a lot Border 4's final game, viewers have been impressed by Bounty Pack 1's lack of content, especially measured against the cost of entry. Here is hope Crazy EllieWith its more concrete changes, a better overall reception will land.

C4SH is coming to Borderlands 4 via the Mad Alley and Vault of the Damned expansions

Border 4Like its predecessors, there are four playable Vault Hunters, each with their own unique strengths, weaknesses, and progression paths. This is to say that vault hunters, and the variety they bring, are the origin Border 4 experience, so the arrival of C4SH is very promising.

C4SH worked as a dealer robot at Kairos Casino before choosing a life of high adventure as a Vault Hunter. But it seems he hasn't completely put his gambling past behind him. Indeed, his programming, once designed to facilitate the risky and cavalier habits of casino patrons, seems to have devolved into an obsession with chance. This fascination with the laws of probability informs the fundamentals of C4SH's gameplay, which Gearbox describes as “distinctly unpredictable”, with his acting skills always containing some element of chance.

At this point, we still have very little to know about C4SH and how he performs on the battlefield, but his obscure wild-card archetype certainly looks promising. C4SH's chance-based nature also makes him great as a post-launch DLC character, as one can imagine he'll support more unusual playstyles, best suited to those already familiar. Border 4of mechanics and looking for something experimental and refreshing. Aside from this unique gameplay premise, C4SH has an attractive, cyber-goth aesthetic and an interesting backstory, so she has every chance to enrich herself meaningfully.

Like Border 3 Players are well aware, Guns, love, and tentacles Cosmic horror doesn't shy away from themes: the expansion's setting, Xylorgos, is home to a fanatical cult that worships the Goliath monster Githian. But like most Border 3Cosmic horror Guns, love, and tentacles Self-referential and irreverent humor is thrown in. Crazy Ellie and Vault of the Damned Looks significantly more serious, and since Bloodtooth and The Lodge are associated with cosmic horrors, the expansion can deliver some effective scares and unsettling moments. It will be interesting to see Bloodtooth and The Lodge potentially portrayed in this new light.

Mad Alley and the Vault of the Damned is bringing new gear to Borderlands 4

The most obvious and pedestrian aspect of Crazy Ellie The DLC is a collection of new loot for players to collect. The meat and potatoes of the expansion are C4SH, the new main story missions, and the new exploration area of ​​Kairos, but the arrival of new legendary gear, Vault Hunter outfits, and various other cosmetics is arguably the most important.
