Make the world a better place, get rich, and exact some sweet revenge in New Tales from the Borderlands! The Gearbox Main Theatre Showcase at PAX West featured a deeper look at our three heroes plus plenty of gameplay.

Nearly 20 minutes of continuous gameplay was revealed, showcasing how your  choices influence how the story plays out. This section from early on in the story finds Anu, Octavio, and Fran in the sewers of Promethea, racing against Tediore to open a dormant Vault. They need to figure out a way past the Tediore guards using either stealth or good old-fashioned violence.  Along the way they must also battle for honor and glory in a Vaultlanders duel, with QTEs deciding the winner of glorious plastic combat!

Eventually, our trio reaches their goal—a bona fide Vault, guarded by fearsome Eridian warriors—and all hell breaks loose. If you missed the live gameplay segment of the show, don't fret; you can watch a video of a playthrough up top!

In the character trailer below, which also debuted during the show, you can quickly familiarize yourself with our three lovable losers. There's Fran, who's royally ticked off at the notoriously cutthroat Tediore CEO Susan Coldwell; Octavio, who dreams of entrepreneurial recognition despite not having an ounce of success to his name; and Anu, who hopes to wield science for the betterment of the universe despite working on a gun manufacturer's gigantic starship.
