2K Games announced Wednesday the release of Borderland Legends for iOS, a game based on the popular first person shooter franchise for Mac, PC and console. It costs $4.99 for the iPhone version and $6.99 for an “HD” version optimized for iPad.

While the setting is the same – the harsh, hostile world of Pandora – and the setup is similar – you control “vault hunters” looking for loot as they are set upon by hordes of dangerous alien wildlife, bandits and other baddies – Borderland Legends eschews the first person perspective in the original game for an isometric overhead view designed especially for mobile devices. The game combines RPG and strategy elements for a tactical gameplay experience.
The vault hunters from the first game are back: Brick, Mordecai, Lilith and Roland, each with unique characteristics. Features include randomly-generated maps, the ability to purchase skills and randomly-generated weapons, shields and utilities.
