Info (Get the Game!):

Borderlands 2 is a first-person shooter that includes character-building elements found in role-playing games, leading Gearbox to call the game a "role-playing shooter."

At the start of the game, players select one of four new characters, each with a unique special skill and with proficiencies with certain weapons. Players earn experience by killing foes and completing in-game challenges. As they gain levels from experience growth, players can then allocate skill points into a skill tree that features three distinct specializations of the base character.

As with the first game, Borderlands 2 features a procedural-generated loot system, whereby weapons and other equipment dropped by foes, found in chests, or offered as quest items have numerous statistics that are generated randomly.

Randy Pitchford, noting that the procedural system in the first game generated 17.75 million possible guns, claimed that the variation in Borderlands 2 is much larger.
