Borderlands 3 will have Twitch integration, plus a new gameplay video leaks

  • 84

The new trailer which you can watch below, reveals part of the Siren's Mystical Assault skill tree:

  • Phasecast - an Augment
    • Amara sends forward an Astral Projection of herself, dealing damage to everything in its path. THIS MUST BE EQUIPPED TO USE.
  • Do Harm - a Passive Ability
    • Killing an enemy grants Amara a stack of Rush. Activating her action skill consumes all Rush stacks.
    • For every stack of Rush consumed, Amara’s Action Skill Damage is temporarily increased.
  • Violent Tapestry - a Passive Ability
    • Applying an Elemental Effect grants Amara a stack of Rush. Activating her action skill consumes all Rush stacks.
    • For every stack of Rush consumed, Amara’s Elemental Effect Chance is temporarily increased.

Borderlands 3 - ECHOcast Twitch Extension

By linking their SHiFT account to Twitch, players will be able to participate in community events (like the rare Chest Event) and win in-game loot for BL3.

The next bit of new comes thanks to ResetEra. User vestan posted a link to a short BL3 gameplay clip. While the clip isn't particularly impressive there are quite a few nice details presented:

  • Loot now has item scores (kinda like Destiny's light levels?)
  • Guns have a handling stat now
  • Amara's siren tattoos are orange in this clip, not blue (maybe they change depending on her action skill?)
  • Grenades have symbols that reflect how they work
  • New UI (looks slick IMO)
  • New Claptrap voice (this isn't really a surprise - not a fan myself)
  • Looks like they're going with the same scaling from The Pre-Sequel instead of Borderlands 2 (really nice change, imo)
  • Weapon manufacturer chests across the board
  • Handsome Jack is on a poster in the background
  • Challenges are back
  • Quest tracker
