Borderlands The Pre-Sequel including DLC
Content specific issues
Violence consists mainly of your players shooting at human characters wearing post-apocalyptic clothing or futuristic armour, with a variety of guns. It’s fairly realistic with blood effects and corpses lying about. The worst of the violence happens when, at close range, you shoot at them causing them to explode and meaty chunks and indeterminate body parts go bouncing along the floor. Similarly when a human character is propelled into an industrial grinder and expelled from the spout as a large amount of blood and meaty chunks. There’s also a scene where for no apparent reason a large number of characters, in what appears to be a first aid station are set alight. The characters scream and wave their arms in an attempt to extinguish the flames. Sexual expletives have been bleeped out but it is pretty obvious what is being said thanks to the subtitles, including the words ‘fuck’ and ‘cunt’. Gambling exists in the form of slot machines commonly found in casinos.
