Borderlands 2 Big Game Hunt DLC out January 15

Borderlands 2's vault hunters will embark on a gentlemanly safari next month in the game's third piece of campaign DLC, Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt. The expedition will get underway on January 15 for PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 players.

Players will visit the lush new continent of Aegrus, meet interesting new people and exotic creatures, and kill them and take their loot. Another new vehicle, which appears to be a swamp-friendly hovercraft, will provide transportation as the hunters face off against a villain who seeks to follow in the path of Handsome Jack (so it sounds like the content will only be accessible after the main campaign is completed.)

Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt is available both as part of the Bordlerlands 2 Season Pass and a la carte for $10.
