Like Canadian launch of Batman: Arkham Asylum, Gearbox’s upcoming post-apocalyptic first-person shooter, role-playing game hybrid, Borderlands, will be available at select retailers for only $39.96 CAD at launch. Canadian BestBuy, FutureShop, and Walmart locations will be participating in the offer, which covers both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game, and if the deal is anything like the Batman: Arkham Asylum one, will only last for three days. The deal is only available for in-store purchases.
Borderlands looks to have a significant amount of gameplay and replayability, so Canadians looking to hibernate indoors during the upcoming winter may want to consider this deal. Furthermore, based on what I have seen of the game, the $39.96 price point will likely be lower than GameNorth’s recommended dollar value!
Borderlands hits Canadian shelves on October 20, 2009.
