Includes all game add-ons and bonus fold-out map

Feral Interactive is bringing Gearbox Software's PC hit game Borderlands to the Mac early next month in an expanded "Game of the Year" edition that includes all four add-on adventures. The role-player shooter has players taking on one of four bounty-hunter characters in a quest across a sparsely-populated wasteland planet looking to stop various enemies and recover valuable alien artifacts.

The game is rated M for Mature and is entirely centered around scenes of explicit violence and gore, along with strong language and mature humor. It features an automatic content-generation system that supplies an almost-endless variety of possible weapons, a distinct comic-book look and a hybrid of first-person-shooter action and role-playing type character progression.

The add-on expansions already included in Feral's edition are The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot, The Secret Armory of General Knoxx, and Claptrap's New Robot Revolution. The game requires an Intel Mac of 1.8GHz or higher processor and a 128MB or better discrete video card, and Mac OS X 10.6.4 or later. ATI X1xxx or Nvidia 7xxx cards and Intel GMA chipsets are not supported.

Borderlands: GOTY edition retails for $50 and is available for pre-order now through Feral's online store.
