Free GOTY Upgrade for Existing Borderlands Players on Steam (April 3rd)

Question. I should been able to get BL1 GOTY reemaster by Borderlands Granting Tool? I used original DVD disc to activate and it happend back in 2014.

Already have the goty version but I'm gona start and finish the game after this has been added

I will have to jump back in

Super glad I picked it up at a Steam sale not too long ago. Same thing happened with Bioshock - 2K likes their remasters.

Not long now:

Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition will be available for digital download April 3 on PlayStation and Xbox Stores at 7am PT / 15:00 BST. Steam users can download the update at 10am PT / 18:00 BST tomorrow. Physical copies & physical pre-orders are limited to the US & Canada.

So they say "download the update"... so will it not be a completely new product like with the Bioshock stuff? Also, do we have to go out of our way to get the game from the store or will it be automatically added?

Regardless, I'm surprisingly excited for this because I want to give Borderlands another chance.

Granting tools doesn't work anymore

Looks like BL2 and Pre-Sequel will be getting something tomorrow as well: https://www.pcgamer.com/borderlands-2-and-the-pre-sequel-are-getting-free-4k-texture-packs/

Realistically, I can't imagine most people owning Borderlands wouldn't already have the GOTY edition. I bought it for $7.49 during a sale a full year before BL2 even launched, and again a little over a year later as part of a $10 pack on Amazon with the first two Bioshock games and Duke Nukem Forever.

That said, the update intrigues me and I'll probably re-download the game. A lot of the enemies felt like ridiculously boring bullet sponges, but I'm a sucker for a good bout of random looting.

Has anyone received the update\upgrade of the new Borderlands GOTY Edition?
I only have the base game.

When is it going through? I kinda want to play BL again.... I have all the DLC but just curious if this new addition will have any graphical upgrades?

It's an update, not a separate version. Ready to download :>

The game has already been updated!
It would be nice if Gearbox had changed the game banner that is shown in the STEAM library.
Despite showing all the DLCS, only the name of the game was given the term "GOTY".

Now Borderland is Borderland GOTY =D

This was added to steamdb 2 mins ago : Borderlands GOTY Enhanced

Edit: Its now in my library.

Borderlands GOTY Enhanced just appeared in my library! Downloading now :D

Did all "game of the year" games change to "GOTY"? Because I noticed how Batman Arkham Asylum and Arkham City are both GOTY in my library now. I don't remember it being like that, and I only noticed it now so I don't know for how long it's been like this. And yeah, I got the Borderlands GOTY as well, but not the enhanced version (yet).

Restart steam and it will be in your library now. Downlaoding it myself.

No lie.

It's listed as Borderlands GoTY Enhanced.

got a new game called borderlands 1 GOTY enhanced

Yep, confirming. Not in any hurry to download it, and the store is super slow, but it has arrived.

I was in mid download until I watched this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ju0l40sDX5M&feature=youtu.be

Cancelled immediately. That performance drop on the Nine-Toes fight is disgusting. Under 60 fps -Yuck! Even dropped down to 30's. Hope it gets fixed.

Looks like now there's only the option to buy the whole package with Borderlands GOTY and Borderlands Enhanced which is a lot more expensive.

Now I feel better about buying the GOTY edition two months before the Enhanced edition was announced... XD
