About this game
Borderlands 2 is the looter-shooter that perfected the formula. Play as one of four Vault Hunters on the planet Pandora, fighting the megalomaniacal Handsome Jack and his army while collecting bazillions of guns. With sharp writing, deep skill trees, endless loot, and seamless co-op, it remains one of the genre's finest.

Is Borderlands 2 Worth It?
Borderlands 2 remains beloved by players for its distinctive blend of shoot-and-loot action with four varied vault hunter classes—the Gunzerker dual-wielding any two weapons, the Siren, the Commando, and the Assassin—each offering genuine playstyle differences. The campaign across Pandora against the evil Handsome Jack showcases the game's dark humor and dynamic weapons variety, while the seamless drop-in/drop-out co-op for up to four players and cross-gear compatibility between playthroughs keeps engagement high. The massive arsenal and character build diversity make replaying through different vault hunters feel worthwhile. Regional price differences make it possible to grab this one for much less.
Steam uses a regional pricing model, which means Borderlands 2 can cost significantly more or less depending on where you buy it. Publishers set different prices for each country based on local purchasing power — regions like Turkey, Argentina, and India typically have much lower prices than Western Europe or North America. Currency exchange rates, local taxes, and market competition also play a role. This is why Borderlands 2 can cost $1.40 in one country and $8.97 in another. Comparing prices across all regions helps you find the best deal available.
We pull Borderlands 2 prices directly from Steam's official store API for each of the 66 regions we track, and refresh them weekly to catch sales, discounts, and publisher price changes. Every price is then converted to a common currency using live exchange rates, which we update daily so the converted figures stay close to what your bank or card would actually charge. The table above ranks every region from cheapest to most expensive, showing the local price, the converted price, and the exact percentage you'd save compared to the most expensive region — learn more about our process.
