Borderlands: The Handsome Collection hitting PS4 and X1

2K and Gearbox Software have just confirmed Borderlands: The Handsome Collection is heading to Xbox One and PlayStation 4, with a scheduled release planned for March 27.

The collection will include both Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, and it will include all of the DLC that has been released for both titles. Players will be able to carry their old-gen characters onto the new machines, and there'll be four-player split-screen for the first time in the franchise's history.

"The Handsome Collection gives players the opportunity to experience the full arc of Handsome Jack's rise and fall, from his not-so-humble beginnings on Elpis to becoming the tyrannical Hyperion CEO on Pandora, all in one value-packed bundle," said 2K president Christoph Hartmann.

"This collection marks the Borderlands franchise's official move to the next-gen platforms, and we're proud to offer our fans the ability to continue playing with the characters they've built as they carry on adventuring in The Handsome Collection."

The limited Borderlands: The Handsome Collection Claptrap-in-a-Box Edition was also confirmed, and alongside the other content listed above, it'll include "a remote controlled Claptrap steward robot, a collectible steel case, and 12 exclusive lithographs." 5,000 units will be made worldwide, and they'll be retailing for a cool £269.95 / $399 / €349.
