Borderlands 2 Now Available for PC Digital Pre-orders

**AdamF** · July 26th, 2012, 12:01 PM

The digital download of Borderlands 2 PC is now available for pre-order at some of our digital retail partners including Steam, GameStop, Amazon, Gamefly, Metaboli, Gamersgate and Greenman Gaming!

Digital pre-orders will also receive access to the Borderlands 2 Premiere Club and all the bonuses that entails -- including a FREE download of the new Mechromancer character class once she's available post-launch.

For those that haven't tried out Borderlands 1, you can purchase the game and all of its DLC at 75% off through 7/30 at participating retailers!

Keep an eye out on Gearboxity, The Official Borderlands 2 Forums, The Borderlands 2 Facebook and the Gearbox Software Twitter for more information regarding Borderlands 2!

Also don't forget about the Free to Play weekend on Steam for Borderlands 1. This weekend only!

Question though Adam.... what time zone does this become available in? Or do they providers pretty much put em up whenever

I ask because my ULCE is... xbox... cuz I preordered it before i bought my PC and they were sold out after my PC was purchased.... So Im essentially buying two copies of BL2 (TAKE MY MONEY). Anyways. Yeah I have a pc copy preordered, but if I can start playing right at midnight eastern I might just get PC copy on steam at midnight and not pick up my ULCE til the next morning..... yeah.. Im trying to give myself 30 more minutes to play that night.

Amazon's is up

Glad to see there's a 4-pack!

Steam store says this weekend you get 10% off the preorder (which would match the Amazon price), but the store price doesn't reflect the discount...Does that not take effect until tomorrow?

The Steam page does not mention anything about the pre-order items being available. Do you get them if you pre-order on Steam or not?

jaredhite1 · July 26th, 2012, 12:19 PM

The Steam page also doesn't offer the four-pack, and has a weird link to itself.
