Gearbox has confirmed the release date and details for the second Borderlands download pack, entitled Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot (get the Mad Max link?).
Here's the meat of Gearbox's PR:
"2K Games announced today that the second piece of downloadable content for Borderlands, Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot, will be available on December 29, 2009 from the Xbox LIVE Marketplace for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft for 800 Microsoft Points and on January 7, 2010 from the PlayStation Network for $9.99. The downloadable content will also be available on Windows PC.

"This explosive piece of action-driven content is in development at Gearbox Software and provides players with more methods of destruction as they tear through the denizens of Pandora.
"Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot is an intense single-player or cooperative experience that expands the mayhem by adding three new Riot Mode arenas where players will endure an onslaught of Pandora's baddest enemies. Working together, players will fend off the masses as they fight for fame, honor, and more importantly, loot.
"Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot also adds a new bank feature, which allows players extra storage capacity for when they encounter one of the more than 16 million weapons that Borderlands has to offer; and the ability to acquire two additional skill points as quest rewards, making their characters even more powerful than before."
Zombies too played out? Hmm, I don't know. We'll have to see it sounds interesting more than just Zombies, with Frankenstein monsters and other things. Like L4D2 though, I really wonder about the timing. Argh, I will probably pick up the DLC soon anyway.
yeah but aside from the enemy additions of zombies and the like. The last Dlc pack was very funny. i especially liked the missions where you had to find scooby doo gang and listening to neds journal as he decides to kill his assisstant becausee he keeps making popcorn while he's trying to think.
The gameplay of borderlands is great, but its the off the wall humour that makes it special.
Not making any flame-worthy comment here, but reading this article makes me sad that Bethesda gave up so quickly on the Fallout DLCs. I have a craving for more Fallout now, but maybe when I can pick up Borderlands cheap it'l fill the void for a while
