Critics generally praised the game's visuals, writing, gameplay, and online multiplayer, as well as its variety of guns, while criticising its mission design and content fillers. The game received universal acclaim upon release. Borderlands 2 was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in September 2012, and it was ported to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One as part of The Handsome Collection in March 2015. Among the game's diverse cast of characters, Handsome Jack, the central antagonist, was created to be a charismatic 'douche' that mirrors Burch's own personality. The team attempted to address players' feedback from the first game, and recruited Anthony Burch who wrote the game's script which is seven times longer than that of the original game. Like its predecessor, the game adopted the 'concept art style', which features graphics inspired by both photorealistic imagery and comic-book-inspired visuals.

With the unexpected success of the first game, Gearbox was able to secure a budget of $30–35 million to develop the sequel. Action role-playing, first-person shooter
