Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep not the final DLC for Borderlands 2

When a company announces that gamers will get four pieces of DLC with a season pass, it's typically expected that's all the company will deliver. After all, that's exactly what Gearbox did with the first Borderlands. But that's why it was an unexpected surprise when Gearbox CEO Randy Pitchford said that more DLC was on the way for the sequel.

Pitchford announced the news on Nerdist podcast, saying, "We did a season pass for Borderlands 2, and the season pass was like, 'hey if you buy the season pass we would be doing four campaign add-ons and you can buy all four of them for the price of three, if you buy upfront'. So everyone was under the expectations that those would be the four DLC's and that's it. We are going to do more, we are going to do some other things."

More Pandoran antics are always a good thing, but still a surprise, particularly when Borderlands 2's head writer Anthony Burch alluded as much when describing Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep: "It feels like an epilogue because it's about Tina coming to grips with the fact her friends are dead. It ends in a place that for me feels more conclusive and a moment of grace than the end of the main game which was like, 'Yeah! More vaults to hunt, let's go out there'. I'm very happy with us ending the campaign DLC with this."

With Borderlands 2 DLC so far, we've seen scurvy skags and sand skiffs on Captain Scarlett and her Pirate's Booty, a monster truck style campaign chock full of 'splosions with Mr. Torgue's Campaign of Carnage, a trek through Pandora's deepest jungles in Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt, and finally, a lively D&D styled meta-game of Bunkers & Badasses in Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep. So what can we expect from new DLC. Not even Pitchford knows, saying, "I don't have details exactly of it yet cause were not ready to announce what the other things are."

All the DLC we've seen so far have been brought to us by some of Pandora's more colorful residents, like Tina, Mad Moxxi, Claptrap, and others. At the very least, I wouldn't expect that to change for the new DLC.
