This fantasy Borderlands spin-off is free right now! Grab it before it ends

The shooter genre sometimes feels oversaturated with games that, like Battlefield and Call of Duty, only recognize serious campaign scenarios and lean far into gritty realism. This makes titles like the Borderlands franchise, which doesn’t take itself too seriously and is simply meant to be fun escapism, all the more refreshing.

Even more refreshing than the Borderlands games? Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, a 2022 spin-off that swapped out the familiar sci-fi planets and repetitive missions with a creative fantasy setting. Here you don’t fight against the usual Borderlands opponents but against goblins, skeletons, dragons, and other fantastical monstrosities.

The ingenious thing about Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is that it wrapped itself up in a Dungeons and Dragons-esque plot in which the crazy Tiny Tina is in charge as she completely changes the rules of the game (or the surrounding levels).

If you want to try it out, you can grab it from the Epic Games Store for free and keep it forever. Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands normally costs $59.99, but it’s been three years since its release and you may not want to pay full price anymore. It’s still worth playing, though, especially if you can snag it for free like you can right now. This offer is good for about a week.

Don’t miss your chance to get it for free

At the time of its release, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands received very good ratings and was particularly impressive for its colorful setting, which feels like a good round of D&D with friends. The levels and missions are imaginatively designed and provide plenty of variety.

The humor is completely over the top and not for everyone, but the popular loot shooter mechanics of the Borderlands series is carried over and keeps you motivated to play just a bit longer, collect just a few more weapons, and kill just a few more enemies.

If you fancy Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, all you have to do is log in to the Epic Games Store and grab the game by June 5th. Once added to your library, you can keep it forever.
