Borderlands 2 DLC and season pass announced

http://forums.gearboxsoftware.com/showthread.php?t=144987

Now that Borderlands 2 has gone gold and we've shifted our efforts to post-launch support of the game, we have some exciting news to share about our plans for add-on content. 

After the release of the game, four brand new add-on campaigns for Borderlands 2 are coming your way, featuring new areas to explore, new adventures to undertake, new enemies to overcome and more. Priced individually at 800 Microsoft Points for Xbox 360 and $9.99 on PC and PlayStation 3, these four campaign add-ons are scheduled to hit by June 2013 with more details to come in the future.

Soon we'll be offering a "Season Pass" bundle that includes all four campaign add-on packs for 2400 Microsoft Points on Xbox 360 and $29.99 on PC and PlayStation Network -- a savings of 25% over buying each campaign add-on individually. The Borderlands 2 Season Pass will be available through Steam, PlayStation Network and Xbox Live and will also be available at GameStop. 

 

Well, kind of saw that coming. I guess I'll grab the season pass, as I imagine I'll enjoy the DLC. Best as I can tell, the season pass is not included in either of the limited editions of the retail game.

Meh....  If gears of war did anything it soured me on this kind of shit.  Each of those DLC packs were available on sale before the season pass people got all the content.  In fact if you bought the season pass, i think you ended up actually paying mor than someone who bought the packs on sale.

 

Besides that, with all the games coming in the next six months, i'm not sure i'll even still be playing borderlands between start of November and end up May.  Plenty of opportunity to wait for sales.

Does anyone know if the if the Mechromancer dlc is part of the 4 planned DLC packs? I was just talking with a buddy and we did not know if the first DLC was the same as the pre-order bonus of getting the Mech. or not.

That is a good question. It would be pretty shitty if the Mechromancer was part of the DLC pack. The folks that preordered AND bought the Season Pass would be screwed. I would assume not, but I would want to get that clarified before I plunked $30 down on a season pass. If someone finds out, please confirm for us.

Gaige the mechromancer is available in the first DLC pack October 16th for 800msp, and she is also a pre order bonus. Whoring this chick out everywhere.

The Mechromancer is NOT part of the DLC packs included in the season pass, i think that's the best way to answer this question.
