Free Borderlands 2 DLC Seems to Reference the Claptrap Voice Actor Drama
To set the stage for the imminent release of Borderlands 3, Gearbox Software released free DLC for Borderlands 2, Commander Lilith & the Fight for Sanctuary. It?s a smart move on Gearbox?s part, giving players a reason to dive back into the series before the third mainline entry hits. However, not every aspect of the expansion?s launch seems wholesome.

The Twitter account, @truongasm posted the following clip from the podcast in which the Claptrap mission is discussed:
