Melee weapons armor rings and spells in terms of new game-play elements there are melee weapons for the first time which allow for leaping at distant enemies along with armor rings and amulets armor augments a character's abilities rings offer a boost to action skill duration damage for specific weapon types and so on and amulets provide additional class damage and special benefits reloading your equipped gun after scoring a melee.
Strike is one example wards are like shields absorbing damage and recharging after a period of time, with different manufacturers having different benefits like quick recharge, at the cost of a lower overall capacity and vice versa then there are spells these replace grenades but are more involved and can do things like calling down meteors summoning and much more all spells can be equipped by all classes with no restrictions over world map further enhancing the experience of playing an actual RPG is the addition of an over world map.
all locations are connected via this map and your character is represented as a small Chibi figure that navigates it different points of interest and areas will also reward exploration as senior producer Kayla Bellmore explained to PC gamer extra exploration will take the players to side maps, that act almost like whole separate modules that are within the same wonderland's universe they're your own separate sub-stories within themselves so you never know what the world map could be hiding random encounters.
of course you'll always have random encounters to deal with in an Overworld these occur if you're venturing through tall grass and not the main path so they're easy to avoid upon encountering an enemy you'll be taken to a smaller area where you will battle in the usual first person combat, partake in longer battles and you'll get better loot though these arenas.
will be in similar Biomes depending on the location they're not part of the larger maps themselves on Tiny Tina's Wonderlands.
9-Enemies
Aside from the dragon lord players will also have to deal with Skeleton Warriors and Mages Wreaking havoc new enemy types include Shrooms Goblins trolls pirates and crabs along with cyclopes who resembles brutes of the borderlands and we can't forget the four-legged shark creatures known as sea Wargs we also wouldn't put it past the developer to sneak in a dragon or four as well .
10-platform multiplayer
On xbox one of the biggest appeals of the borderlands franchise is co-op as you take on tougher challenges with friends and hopefully receive better loot with borderlands 3 receiving cross-platform.
Multiplayer between all platforms is there hope that Tiny Tina's Wonderlands will follow suit the answer is sort of according to its Xbox store listing cross-gen and cross-platform multiplayer on Xbox is supported but while it's pretty much confirmed that Xbox one players can party with the Xbox series XS players it's unknown whether they can do the same with anyone on PlayStation consoles or even the PC Xbox cloud saves are supported along with PS4 to PS5 save transfers though the latter can't be reversed so keep that in mind HDR 10 4k and 60 frames per second thankfully much like borderlands 3 fans can expect support for HDR 10 4k resolution and 60 frames per second on Xbox series X in fact the Xbox store listing says plus 60 frames per second so it's possible that there will also be a 120 frames per seconds mode expect all of this to apply to the PlayStation 5 version as well on Tiny Tina's Wonderlands .
