During its panel at PAX East today, Gearbox announced that fans will soon have a second chance to purchase a Loot Chest at ThinkGeek, Forbidden Planet and the Gearbox site.
Back in September, Borderlands 2 launched with an extremely limited Ultimate Loot Chest Edition that included a physical chest based on the ones seen in the game. The set sold out almost immediately, much to the chagrin of eager fans, bringing about today's announcement.
The new chest will cost $99.99 (it does not include a copy of the game) and will be limited to 5,000 copies. It will be available in May and, unlike the chest seen in the collector’s edition, has a diamond-plated paint scheme.
The Loot Chest will include 20 SHiFT codes for in-game legendary weapons scaled to your level, a replica Goliath mask that lets you redeem in-game Goliath heads for your characters, Vault Hunter wanted posters and more.
