Jesus Christ, look at the Borderlands 3 box art Holy crap. News by Wesley Yin-Poole Deputy Editorial Director Updated on 3 Apr 2019 207 comments It's not often video game box art catches my eye these days. If it's not generic action man looking like he's on a mission, it's a few generic action men looking like they're on a mission. But the box art for Borderlands 3 did catch my eye, because it's weird and awesome and, crucially, different. Video game Twitter person Wario64 leaked the Borderlands 3 box art, and it shows the game's familiar Psycho not blowing his brains out - as he has done in various poses on previous games in the looter shooter series - but with three fingers held up in an open palm pose.

Familiar faces from the Borderlands series can be found in the roses at the bottom of the image. Of course, instead of a halo, we have the Borderlands symbol around the Psycho's head. And instead of the Sacred Heart of Jesus we have a grenade. There's a part of me that's saddened that the marketers at 2K and Gearbox didn't go for a third blow your brains out Psycho image. I mean, give the guy a third arm to do it with, if you have to! But if you're not going to do that, this Jesus-inspired box art is a great shout. And it appears to tie into the game itself. Based on the reveal trailer, there's something of a worship and holy vibe to the world. So, here's to Borderlands 3's box art - something a bit different in these most generic of times. More please!
