Borderlands DLC: Mad Moxxi released for PC

Mad Moxxi’s Underdome Riot is the second DLC available for Borderlands and has just been released for the PC. Mad Moxxi introduces a new cooperative arena game mode as well as a stash to store your gear.

Instead of new areas to explore and quests to complete (which is what was offered The Zombie Island of Dr Ned), Mad Moxxi’s Underdome Riot includes Riot mode – a new gameplay mode that pits your character or team up against 5 waves of enemies in 3 different arena settings.

The new mode is a change of pace compared to the original game and first DLC, and hands on play testing has shown that you do not receive experience for killing enemies in the arena so this gameplay mode may be better suited for max level characters. There are however new weapons you can find in the arena, so if you feel like taking on the challenge there is a reward at the end of it.

Mad Moxxi’s Underdome Riot costs $9.99 to purchase and can be downloaded from the Gearbox store or from Steam.

Borderlands DLC

The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned is the first DLC for Borderlands and was released a couple of days ago. The DLC can be purchased from the Steam store for $9.99 US (or $12.99 is you live in Aus) and includes new scenery and areas to explore, new missions and new enemies.

The update also includes the highly objected addition of DRM to the game in the form of SecuROM. Listed on the Steam page for the DLC is that the update includes SecuROM and has a 5 machine activation limit.

However on the Gearbox store the DLC is listed as being
limited to 5 concurrent installations. There is a big difference between having a 5 time activation limit and being able to have 5 concurrent installs of the game at one time. At this point in time it’s not clear if the DRM restrictions are the same across all digital delivery services or not.

Feel free to discuss the addition of DRM to Borderlands as well as the recently released DLC, The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, on our Borderlands forums.
