Borderlands 3 has multiple Season Passes that extent the amount of content for the game. Each season pass adds something different to Borderlands 3. While Borderlands 3 isn’t an always-online game, Gearbox Software and 2K Games do provide on-going content and support to the game. In this article, I’ll go over the details of the Borderlands 3 season passes; what can you expect from them, and if they are worth your well-earned bucks.

Borderlands 3 Season Pass Price
The Borderlands 3 Season Pass is priced at $49,99. For this price, you get 4 Story Campaign add-ons, which each are being sold separately for $14.99. So if you would purchase all 4 story campaign add-ons then your best buy would be the Season Pass. Because 4×14.99 = $59.96 You would roughly save $10 if you purchased the season pass. So if you bought the Borderlands 3 Super Deluxe Edition before launch you even got a better deal. That version of the game had a $20 discount on pre-order.
Should I Buy the Borderlands 3 Season Pass?
The Season pass is included in some versions of the game. If you have the ‘Collector’s Edition’ or the ‘Super Deluxe Edition’ then you already have the season pass. If you have the ‘Deluxe Edition’ or the ‘Standard Edition’ you will need to pick up the season pass separately.
Is the Borderlands 3 Season Pass worth it?
If you like to be entertained with story campaign add-ons the season pass does really deliver on that. Each of them delivers a good story set in its own theme. These DLCs however, don’t contain classic Raid bosses as you know them from Borderlands 2. Well, there is 1 semi-raid boss in DLC2 but he is kinda a pushover. All of the DLCs have interesting loot to spice up your gameplay.
