Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary was an expansion for Borderlands 2 released in June of 2019 as a way of hyping up the release of Borderlands 3. It boosted the level cap to 80, added the option to start a new character at level 30 and skip the tutorial (hallelujah), threw in a new tier of weapons, and mainly just let you hang out with your favorite characters again while shooting up a slightly different variety of bad dudes.

It was free for its first month on Steam, and now it's free again on the Epic Games Store. Which is nice, because it's the one DLC that isn't bundled in with the Borderlands Handsome Collection they gave away for free in May. You've got until October 2 to add it to your account.

Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary is a pretty good piece of DLC and it's hard to argue with the price, but it's not up there with the five essential Borderlands DLC expansions you should definitely play.

A former music journalist who interviewed everyone from Giorgio Moroder to Trent Reznor, Jody also co-hosted Australia's first radio show about videogames, Zed Games. He's written for Rock Paper Shotgun, The Big Issue, GamesRadar, Zam, Glixel, Five Out of Ten Magazine, and Playboy.com, whose cheques with the bunny logo made for fun conversations at the bank. Jody's first article for PC Gamer was about the audio of Alien Isolation, published in 2015, and since then he's written about why Silent Hill belongs on PC, why Recettear: An Item Shop's Tale is the best fantasy shopkeeper tycoon game, and how weird Lost Ark can get. Jody edited PC Gamer Indie from 2017 to 2018, and he eventually lived up to his promise to play every Warhammer videogame.
