Borderlands DLC #2: Mad Moxxie’s Underdome Riot

After successfully delivering on “Zombie Island” (on PC now as well), Gearbox has announced another piece of DLC for “Borderlands”: “Mad Moxxie’s Underdome Riot” is a brand new game mode, which is very similar to ‘Firefight’ found in “Halo 3: ODST”. Gearbox’s Jon Hemmingway elaborated on the game-mode a bit further:

“It’s all about this crazy Moxxi character, and she’s running these tournaments. You go in and fight waves and rounds of monsters, and then she starts changing it all up. She throws out what are called ‘Moxxi Maxims,’ these rules that dramatically change the way the game play. She’ll be like, ‘Vampire Rule!’ which makes it so that the player’s health is constantly draining, but every time you get a kill you get a whole bunch of health back. Now all the players are like, ‘Holy crap, I have to play amazingly aggressive,’ so you have to charge in before you basically bleed out. Another example, she’ll go ‘Shotgun Challenge,’ where all shotguns do bonus damage and all other guns take a penalty.”

Also, you get a Gun-Bank where you can store all your weapons. “Underdome Riot” will run you a cool 800 MS Points or $10/€7,99. The Xbox 360 is getting it on December 29th while PS3 owners will have to hold out without “Mad Moxxie” until January 7th. Why? I don’t know.
