After four years since its initial launch, Borderlands 3 has finally made its way to the Nintendo Switch. This game was launched previously for PlayStation 5, 4, Xbox consoles, and PCs in 2019. Many were pretty excited about this release, given the fact that fans love taking their looter shooters on the go with them. But just before Borderlands 3 could make its way to the Nintendo Switch eShop, a big hurdle presented itself.

It was revealed that this upcoming game would measure a hefty 62GB on the Switch. However, it looks like that information was far from accurate!

Developers confirmed Borderlands 3 for Nintendo Switch is significantly smaller in size than previously reported!

Fans everywhere were panicking about very strange news; they were informed that the upcoming Nintendo Switch port of looter shooter Borderlands 3 would be 62GB in size. Now that’s a very unusual size for a Nintendo Switch game. Games on this console are usually significantly smaller than their normal counterparts. Given their lack of higher visual fidelity. So devs shared an update, much to the relief of the fans.

The developers of Borderlands 3 Switch put an end to this panic by informing gamers that this game is not as big as previously reported. They confirmed the game size is actually much smaller. They reportedly split the base game and DLC.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder Players Have a “Wild” Challenge Awaiting Them

Their X post specifically mentioned, “We’re seeing technically incorrect reports that Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition file size on Switch is 62 GB. The actual file size is 23.5 GB. We had to submit a file size at packaging time but kept working to optimize it.”

This implies the developers were still working on it when they were asked for the size of the store page. And this caused a lot of concern. It’s good, though, that fans will now be able to download Borderlands 3 without having to worry about the size of their Nintendo Switch memory card.

Nintendo Switch players get the whole package

Players who choose to purchase Borderlands 3 on Nintendo Switch will get a much better deal than anyone anywhere else. Given the fact that Gearbox has chosen to launch the ultimate edition on Switch eShop. This edition besides the base game also comes with multiple DLC packs. Here is a list of every expansion pack coming with this game below:

Borderlands 3 Director’s Cut

This expansion adds a bunch of cut content to Borderlands 3. It includes Hemovorous the Invincible, a new raid boss, and three vault cards containing more loot and some new gear.

Borderlands 3 Designer’s Cut

This DLC takes players to Arms Raid Mode alongside giving players a new skill tree for every vault hunter. Arms Race is a reality show where all people do is kill each other to live. This is a replayable mode where players can return as many times as they feel like and duke it out against AI characters and win the best loot of them all!

Borderlands 3 Moxxi’s Heist of the Handsome Jackpot

In this expansion, Moxxi is out to give vault hunters a new job. She’s looking to take control of a space station casino called The Handsome Jackpot. Should players succeed, a safe loaded with loot awaits. This one features a bunch of new enemies and a predictably massive amount of valuable loot!

Borderlands 3 Bounty of Blood

This DLC introduces a brand new location called Gehenna. A brutal frontier planet on the outskirts of space. In this dlc, Vault Hunters have to defend Vestige from a gang of outlaws called Devil Riders.

Borderlands 3 Guns, Love, and Tentacles

Hammerlock and Wainwright invite the player to a party on the planet of Xylourgos. While players are there to attend Hammerlock and Wainwright’s wedding, turns out the place is ruled by a cult.

Players have plenty to explore and accomplish in the game. All this at a price of $59.99 does not seem like a bad deal.
