As the title implies, Borderlands 2: Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt reunites your Vault Hunter(s) with the first human friend he/she initially made on Pandora, the half-prosthesis-half-British-gentleman-badass Sir Hammerlock. He invites you out to his cabin in the mountainous swamplands of Aegrus for a weekend of hunting. In Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt, the third campaign add-on for Borderlands 2, players will enter an uncharted territory deep in the swamps of Pandora where a massive Hyperion ship has crashed. The wreckage is rumored to have stockpiles of loot. But watch out, mutated creatures, and armies of savages also have an interest in the ship. Borderlands 2's third DLC expansion, Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt, has arrived, and to celebrate developer Gearbox Software have released a launch trailer that teases all of the new additions to.

'Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt', is the name of DLC3 which involves hunting creatures with honor and facial hair.Danger! Excitement! Mustaches! It's time for another episode of Vault Hunter Adventures, featuring Sir Hammerlock! In this week's tale, our hard-boiled heroes travel to the savage continent of Aegrus! Their goal? To uncover the most exotic creatures Pandora has to offer, and give 'em the old one-two!

• One new head and one new skin for each class
• A new vehicle - the fanboat (summoned from a Catch-A-Boat station), with 68 of its own skins and corrosive, incendiary, and shock weapon mods
• Currently 12 side missions and 5 longer main story missions
• A new raid boss ('Imagine, if you will, a Stalker the size of a small building. Now imagine yourself killing it.')
• More new Seraph items
• New kinds of enemies, like the borok and the scaylion
• Lots of monster-tracking side missions assigned by Sir Hammerlock
• A new swamp/jungle continent named Aegrus
• A self-important but not-so-well-known new enemy who is 'super-pumped we're archenemies now', and who leads a tribe of jungle savages and has an evil plan that might actually work
• A new treasure room brimming with goodies... but with a time limit

And, of course...

• Claptrap. Always Claptrap. ('Those savages briefly distracted me from the crushing loneliness of my existence!')

Oh, and speaking of elemental damage types, there’s a cool new feature here. The new “Swamp Vehicle” resembles the sort of hovercraft you’d find in the Everglades, and whenever you spawn one, you can choose the elemental damage type of its mounted cannon. That’s actually incredibly helpful, as it allows for slightly more strategic use of vehicular manslaughter.

And there are still the requisite Easter eggs that pay tribute to other game series. For example, I can tell the folks at Gearbox are probably excited for Dead Space 3, as I discovered a weapon called the Plasma Cutter. Though it bears little resemblance to Isaac Clarke’s iconic weapon of the same name, it ended up being my most-used weapon throughout the campaign.

Unfortunately, what it all boils down to is that Gearbox has set such incredibly high expectations with the Captain Scarlett DLC that it’s going to be nearly impossible to live up to those consistently while keeping the DLC coming out in a timely fashion. And that’s really the biggest problem with Sir Hammerlock’s Big Game Hunt; we’ve been expecting so much from it. It’s not a bad deal for ten bucks, but it’s shorter than we had hoped, there’s no level cap increase, and the Trophy/Achievement offerings are meager once again.
