Borderlands 2 opens up September 18

2K Games details preorder bonuses for Gearbox's latest post-apocalyptic shooter/RPG hybrid; new trailer inside.

Take-Two has had its fair share of problems getting games out the door, but it appears as if the Gearbox-developed Borderlands 2 won't have that problem. Today, 2K Games confirmed Borderlands 2 will arrive within its projected 2012 window, having scheduled the game on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC for September 18 in the United States, and September 21 in the UK.

Guns will, of course, factor heavily into Borderlands 2's preorder bonuses.

Along with debuting a new sizzle reel for the game (below), 2K Games also outlined Borderlands 2's preorder bonuses. In-game items are the theme of the preorder pack, with the publisher promising access to the Gearbox gunpack, which includes a handful of starter golden guns, as well as a golden key that can be used to unlock a special chest in the city of Sanctuary.

Lastly, the pack includes the Vault Hunter's Relic, which impacts gamers' loot-finding capabilities. Those interested in picking up the aforementioned bonuses with their preorders can do so through the game's official website or at certain retailers.
