Worth Playing
By Andreas SalmenNew Tales from the Borderlands tries to go all-out but ends up with unlikable characters, mind-boggling story twists, and forced comedic writing. Even some interesting decisions and entertaining side characters cannot save what is otherwise an uninteresting romp through the world of Borderlands. If anything, NTFTB confirms that the original was indeed a perfect storm that isn't easily replicated. Fans of the franchise may end up enjoying the adventure, but I'd advise waiting for a sale before embarking on this strange adventure.
Game Forces PT
By Carlos CabritaNew Tales From The Borderlands, was an unexpected announcement. For those who loved the first title, like me, it was another game to end on my wishlist. It definitely presents itself with a completely different personality: funnier, more interaction between the characters, a completely new story and with a new cast (but with some familiar faces). However, the lack of "real" gameplay is quite notorious, the secondary characters have few moments of "fame" and their story is quite confusing. New Tales From The Borderlands is far from being a reasonable game, on the contrary, it is even a must-have game for anyone who loves this genre and especially anyone who is a fan of the original Borderlands series, as well as the adaptation made by Telltale Games.

By Jan KalnýNew Tales from the Borderlands could easily have been a hit if there was a more exciting story. Or at least the game devoted more to it than barely two of the five episodes. And it's a real shame because, as it stands, it's just like a pretty funny sitcom, but without a story and with an otherwise pretty strong foundation that just resulted in a pretty unmemorable experience, even though it had a perfect start.
New Game Network
By Alex VarankouFor a few moments, New Tales from the Borderlands captures the feeling of the series, but for the most part it's a rather generic and overlong trek that fails to excite, entertain, or amuse.

By Vasilis KamakarisIf New Tales from the Borderlands is Gearbox Software's first attempt at reviving the greatness of Telltale Games, we hope it's also the last.
