Tiny Tina's Wonderlands revolves around Tiny Tina, the popular Borderlands character voiced by Ashly Burch. It also stars "headstrong captain" Valentine, played by Andy Samberg (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), "rule-obsessed robot" Frette, played by Wanda Sykes (Curb Your Enthusiasm), and the Dragon Lord, played by Will Arnett (Arrested Development).

In the game, Tiny Tina serves as players' guide through a fantasy tabletop realm. Players are on a quest to defeat the Dragon Lord, and along the way meet characters such as a lute-wielding Bardbarian and their very own "Fairy Punchfather".

You get to create and customise a multiclass hero and loot, shoot, slash and cast while defeating monsters and exploring treasure-filled dungeons. It's like Borderlands, except with magic and swords as well as bullets. Tiny Tina makes the rules and changes the world on the fly.

There's co-op for up to four players, a story-driven campaign and repeatable end-game content, Gearbox said.
