In the first days of August, the long-awaited film was released Borderlandswhich, despite having a dream cast, failed to capture enough attention for fans and new people to be encouraged to buy their movie tickets to admire it in all its splendor. For this reason, and as a somewhat desperate measure, they have had to put it on sale on digital platforms shortly after its arrival in theaters, in fact, it was less than a month after.
From now on, those who are interested can buy the film for $24.99 and rent it for a period of 48 hours for $19.99 on platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Google Play and Fandango at HomePhysical copies are also available for pre-order at Amazonin steelbook and standard. Although these will take a little longer due to the issue of manufacturing and so on, something that is also happening in the video game business, first digital and then physical.
The film received mixed reviews and disappointed at the box office, grossing just $16.5 million in its global release against a $145 million budget. Despite the team’s efforts and a plea from Take-Two’s CEO for fans to give it a chance, its worldwide total barely reached $24.2 million before its digital release.
Here is a general description of the saga:
Borderlands is a popular first-person shooter video game series developed by Gearbox Software and published by 2K Games. The series is notable for its unique visual style, which blends cel-shaded (comic book-like) graphics with a sci-fi setting and irreverent humor. Borderlands games combine action, exploration, and RPG (role-playing game) elements, where players complete quests, collect weapons, and upgrade their characters in a vast post-apocalyptic world.
Remember that you can now enjoy this film on different media.

Author’s note: It’s sad that it was a failure, but it’s not the most popular video game franchise either. The bad thing is that the standalone product also turned out to be mediocre.
