BORDERLANDS: THE HANDSOME COLLECTION CURRENTLY FREE ON XBOX ONE
True loot.
BY JOE SKREBELS


For some reason, Borderlands: The Handsome Collection - which comprises Borderlands 2, Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel!, and all their associated DLC - is going for a song on the Microsoft Store, and the lyrics to that song are "it is free to download".
Heading to the store page for the Collection reveals a Get It Now button - sign into your Live account and pressing it will add it to your library, ready to download on your console. I've verified that it works.

Borderlands: The Handsome Collection Review

NeoGAF membersthink it may be part a free weekend for the games, rather than a permanent free download. If you're interested, it's certainly worth a click, just in case.

We gave The Handsome Collection an 8.4 review, calling it "a good pickup for returning fans and a great pickup for new ones."
